A 3,500 mile offshore race with a big difference as teams have to cross major weather systems, rather thatn running with them, to get to the Arctic Circle and back - This is a race that will push the competitors in very different ways to conventional offhore racing - Matt Sheahan finds out why #VendeeGlobe #Sailing #OceanRacing #Adventure #ExtremeSports

A staysail is a type of sail on a sailboat that is set on a stay, or a support wire or rod that helps support the mast. A staysail can be found on the forward section of the boat, between the mast and the bow of the boat. Staysails are smaller than the main sail and can be triangular or jib-shaped. Depending on the design, the staysail can be attached to the stay with hanks or a furling system, which allows for easy deployment and stowing. A staysail can be used in various wind conditions and can be adjusted to provide more or less power depending on the wind speed and direction. Often, the staysail is used in combination with the main sail to optimize sail trim and help the boat sail more efficiently. Sailboats with staysails typically have a rigging plan that includes multiple stays or shrouds that provide support to the mast. This rigging is more complex than the simple fore-and-aft rigging found on smaller sailboats, but it allows for greater sail area and better performance in a wider range of wind conditions. #sailingexperience #sailinglife #sailingadventure
