Sailcom: The Power of Seeing

BSG Development’s Sailcom program offers the power of seeing new sail flying on a boat before the first inch of material cut. The program models proposed sails in crystal clear 3D graphics that can be rotated in 360°. This powerful software helps sail designers check dimensions to ensure proper fit before the sails get delivered and helps customers see how a sail will set up, how it will be trimmed and how it will fit into the boat’s existing sail inventory. This video is from UK Sailmakers Northeast’s Ememett Dickheiser’s webinar on distance racing reaching sails where he explained the uses of and differences between flying jibs, large roach headsails and Code Zeros. The video is a perfect example of how a picture is worth a thousand words. To see a recording of the webinar, go to the “How To” section of the UK Sailmakers website.
