UK Sailmakers’ Head Sail Designer Pat Considine uses BSG Development’s FSI sail analysis program to help fine-tune his sail designs. The FSI program works like a virtual wind tunnel allowing Pat to make sure no section of the sail becomes overloaded, allows him to see how the flying shape changes with trim, mast bend, rig tune across a range of wind speeds. The program analyses how all the components of the boat’s rig and sails work together. In this video Pat talks about how he used the program to advance his sail designs for square top mainsails. At the end of the video analyzing the mainsail shape on the Mark Mills designed Cape 31, Pat said, “Anyone who got a square top mainsail design this year benefited from the Cape 31 study. It helped improve the group’s designs for square top mainsails.” This is just one more example of the technical tools UK Sailmakers uses to ensure our customers get the fastest sails possible.

The fastest sailor on the planet! 🚀 Our next special guest for the RORC Time Over Distance series is Paul Larsen. In 2012, Larsen clocked 68 knots in Vestas Sailrocket. Larsen has always been involved in cutting edge projects but in this interview, he looks from the outside, in, to the foiling technology in the Vendée Globe and the 46th America's Cup. Join us on Monday 8th March at 1700 UTC, on RORC Facebook and YouTube. #RORCTimeOverDistance #PaulLarsen #SailRocket #VendeeGlobe #AmericasCup
