Sailors are a superstitious bunch. From bananas being bad luck to renaming a boat without a ceremony, the sea has its own rules. We broke a few of these traditions during our boat’s renaming, but with respect and a little luck, the ocean was still kind. 🌊✨ Would you follow the old sailor superstitions or break them? Tell us in the comments. Ready to make your own memories on the water. Superstitions optional. Good days guaranteed. 👉 Book your sail with us here: www.lazysheetsailing.com #SailingSuperstitions #SailingSXM #StMaarten

Working closely with Taty Frans, MauiSails is excited to introduce the all new 2014 "Loco Pro" 4-batten dedicated freestyle sail. This is the greatest evolution to our highly successful, multiple time EFPT champion and former PWA vice champion Loco sail line since its inception, involving a complete redesign around the 4 batten layout. Having gained some shaping insight from our revolutionary Mutant sail range, but applied to a classic higher aspect ratio freestyle outline, the Loco is optimized for new school freestyle maneuvers. http://www.mauisails.com/sail.php?id=123
