Quietly and with little fanfare, North Sails One Design unveils the Demi Moore, roto-molded spinnaker.

Rumor has it that the design was inspired by the actress' famous Vanity Fair cover.

Head up! I'm losing pressure here.

Dear fellow competitors, thank you for rolling that rotting nasty dead fish up in our mainsail...you're quite the jokers. But, paybacks a bitch, ain't it? P.S.

"Well... (5 second pause) Shit."

The winner! That sinking feeling where you know things are going to go downhill from here. Usually happens when you're winning at the time. A quite and reflective "..........Shit" is about all you can do about it

[Amati]

(News release, please distribute)

Now, from Quantum Sails R&D, a new concept in fathead spinnaker
design and technology! Not since M. Herbulot's balloon has the spinnaker
concept seen such a large and bold leap forward!

Using CFD design parameters and data from our twisted flow (tm!) wind
tunnel, we have developed a technical breakthrough in symmetrical
spinnaker design that minimizes tip vortex/masthead interference to give
you, the serious racing sailor, superior lift, winning forward drive,
lower CE, better stability deep offwind, better VMG, and a softer feel
all in a design destined to change not only one design racing, the
Olympics (tm!), but, we are sure, IOR and IMS racing for the
forseeable future. Judging by intense interest from the IACC
community, we are convinced that we are on to something new and
exciting!

Please call for a quote from one of our experienced and friendly
sailmakers, and buy yourself into the future of downwind sailing!
