Qué cubre este vídeo

James sails Triteia's original Rolly Tasker sails — bent on in Hawaii in early 2022 — back to the Rolly Tasker factory in Phuket, Thailand, after 16,000 miles, for inspection and a new-sail decision.0:38 Sven, the owner and CEO, leads a tour of the 10,000-square-meter facility, which operates four plotters, one laser cutter, vacuum cutting tables, plastic injection-molding machines for sail hardware (slugs, slides, headboards), a standing rigging department using Korean-quality stainless wire, and a spinnaker section.5:59 Sven explains that most cruising sailors use Challenge Fastnet Dacron in a crosscut construction, while serious ocean cruisers step up to Contender Warptech or Hybrid materials in a tri-radial cut — the same cloth used for Golden Globe race entries.45:55 After laying out Triteia's four-year-old sails, Sven judges the mainsail sun-yellowed but serviceable, with patchable chafe damage, and confirms the existing Dyneema lashings are wearing through.47:08 James orders a new set in Contender Warptech, tri-radial cut, with a fourth reef added to the mainsail and the same 125% headsail dimensions, to carry Triteia across the Indian Ocean and around South Africa.47:51 Rolly Tasker also handles full rig inspections and standing rigging replacement, making it a one-stop preparation point for sailors staging an Indian Ocean crossing from Phuket.32:28
