Out of nowhere our Spinnaker opened up in 3 pieces 😢 as we still need to sail over 3.000nm in the next 2 months we desperately need a new one to keep our plan on track 🗺️ @rollytaskersails_official will be able to send us a new one in a short period, but we need to decide on the colors. Help us design our new Spinnaker using their design tool on the website (you can find the link in our bio or in the stories). Let your imagination run free combining max 3 colors of your choice and send us a screenshot of your Design ⛵️ Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Zambezi #spinnaker #sailing #sailboat #catamaran #sailinglife #sailingadventure
