For the sails I have entrusted to Robert Westermann (Di-Tech), also with a shoulder and some two OSTAR Atlantic crossings and India. The boat already had a rich set of sails, though no longer a spring chicken: two furling mainsail, genoa two blinds, never used a bow, never used a staysail and a MPS almost never used. "Needless to sacrifice new sails in a sailing so long and where speed is unimportant; exploits the sails and when you go back and redo the new throw. Just in case, however, take measurements of your boat and if you ever need some you sail the prepared and shipped a few days, "said Roberto. How many in his place would give me some advice so honest? Always check all the sails and a spinnaker do heavy and tight.
