1D Inside: Team Bolsena Yachting powered by 1D Sails

Let's see one by one our team members for 2017. Starting now with one of our the F18 sailors.


We are working closely with Bolsena Yachting. We have started to talk about a strong team for a while, and it became a reality last autumn. Finally the sails got ready and the boat has arrived as well.

The Lightwind-Beast development

I get many emails on how to make catamarans more effective for lighter winds. We can see many sails which is not so efficient. It has power, but cannot go forward fast. I have seen several cases on different regattas that the boat is flying a hull in really low wind, , but was very very slow. It means it has too much drag.

This whole light wind passion started several years ago, when we bought our Tornado. We have lots of light wind days on Lake Balaton. I have started to think how to pimp her. Now let's see what was done in the last two years.
