How is your mainsheet traveler rigged?

Purchase ratios, control location, deck layout. It all matters when you need your gear to work in the moment & under load.

How cold is too cold? We still don't know!

A winter is never wasted when the ice is good. The DN North American Championships were held on Green Lake, Wisconsin last weekend and winter showed up full force. But sailors still braved the -22°F / -30°C wind chills. ❄️

Most sailors take traveler cars and tracks for granted. Not in the America's Cup. The extreme sail trimming & roll stability requirements of the AC75 & AC40 required us to redevelop hardware for a whole new performance level. We welcome the challenge → https://t.co/4eEVpQFgCD

Through the line, you feel even the slightest pull which enables you to fine tune a sail shape. In the lightest breeze, you can ease a sheet when others can’t.
