Safety

Absolute safety. Sail relaxed, feel and be safe at all times, no compromise on that! Safety comes from 5 basic characteristics: Robust structure, Stability, Unsinkability, Offshore design, Speed potential and Active safety systems

Robust structure:

• Hulls reinforced both longitudinally and transversally
• All bulkheads are structurally integrated
• Extra reinforcement on highly stressed areas of hull and deck (winches, rudder pits, engine etc.)
• Topconstruction quality

Stability:

• Great reserve of righting moment.

Un-sinkability:

• Buoyancy foam below front and aft cabins
• Watertight aft and bow crash compartments

Offshore design:

• CE Cat A – ISO 12217‐2 for Ocean Sailing.

Speed: Being fast is an element of safety per se:

• reach shelter quickly
• escape from a weather front

Active safety systems:

• automatic mainsail sheet release system
• automatic frontsail sheet release system

Those automatic systems are connected to a sofisticated combination of accelerometer and inclinometer that will intervene before the boat gets into a critical situation from a stability point of view. Such systems were developed for ocean racing multihulls.
