Do you know your Code Sails? Swipe 10 pics with info on these light wind power units. Cruising and performance sailors on yachts—especially those sailing catamarans—are increasingly turning to Code sails to fill the power gap between traditional headsails (genoas and above all self-tacking solents) and downwind spinnakers.  ▫️ These free-flying, furling sails combine versatility, relative ease of use, and performance across a range of wind angles in lighter winds. ▫️ But with names like Code 0, Code 65, 55, Code D, “screecher”, "reacher" and “gennaker” floating around, what do these terms actually mean? ▫️ Let’s break it down by sail type, wind angle suitability, and best use cases. ▫️ Term Screecher slang for flat Code sails (typically Code 65 or Code 0) Gennaker - Generic asymmetric sail between genoa and spinnaker; a.k.a a Code D SMG - Sail Mid-Girth (% of foot); defines sail depth. ▫️ What's your favourite light wind sail? #Sails #academy #learnsailing

Aliens do live among us! The #PeacockMantisShrimp, in spite of its name, belongs to a different class of organisms called #stomatopods and is neither a true mantis nor a #shrimp. They are common in Southeast Asia and Australia as well as the warm coastal waters of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The vibrant appearance of #MantisShrimps is what draws in prey, and they are well-recognized for their remarkable hunting skills. Their unique limbs are referred to as "raptorial claws" or "smashers." These claws have a tremendous amount of strength and can strike with remarkable force and speed. They are indeed thought to be among the fastest and most potent striking appendages in the animal kingdom. Come find this mesmerising #SeaCreature in #RajaAmpat with us.
