¿Qué cubre este video?

The Parasail and New Generation Parasailor are specialized downwind sails designed to prevent the broaching and instability common with traditional spinnakers and gennakers.2:24 Both models feature a large opening at the point of maximum pressure, which channels airflow through an integrated wing.2:55 This wing generates a lifting force that pulls the boat forward and upward, reducing heel and leeway while maintaining stability in gusts.2:55

The Parasail uses a single-skin, two-dimensional wing, while the New Generation Parasailor utilizes a three-dimensional, hybrid wing constructed with internal chambers similar to a paraglider.7:05 This structural difference makes the New Generation model more powerful and stable in high winds.7:31 Both sails operate effectively in apparent wind angles from 60 to 180 degrees and can be deployed in as little as 5 knots of apparent wind.7:49 While the Parasail reaches its performance limit at approximately 25 knots of apparent wind, the New Generation Parasailor remains stable at higher wind speeds, offering a broader, all-around utility range for both Mediterranean cruising and ocean passages.8:35
