Sven Yrvind tests a new 900-kilogram boat featuring a two-sail downwind rig, with each sail measuring three square meters.Watch The design incorporates manual cranks located near the hatch to facilitate sail area reduction and reefing.1:33 A built-in water collection system channels runoff from the sails directly into the boat.1:22 During initial sea trials, the sail fabric catches on the storage box, indicating a need for mechanical adjustments.6:01 The vessel utilizes three masts, including an aft mast, and features a bumpkin, an oar for steering, and four paddles.6:29 Antenna cables are routed internally through the mast to protect them from the white lines used for rigging.7:23 The boat, which is significantly lighter than the previous four-square-meter, 1.1-ton model, requires further refinement of the boom and mast positioning to ensure smooth operation.2:41 Initial testing reveals that new rigging configurations require iterative adjustments to resolve friction and clearance issues.
