Erik Aanderaa travels to the Rolly Tasker Sails factory in Phuket, Thailand, to oversee the production of new sails for his boat, Tessie.1:01 The facility, established in 2006, utilizes a streamlined production line that incorporates laser cutting, specialized rigging, and hand-finishing stations.3:09 Upon returning to Haugesund, Norway, Aanderaa removes his old sails and installs the new Genoa and mainsail.21:18 The new Genoa features a hybrid construction of Dyneema and polyester with an orange sun cover.21:56 During the mainsail installation, Aanderaa encounters a fitment issue where the new sail stack exceeds the height of his existing lazy bag, necessitating the installation of a custom-sized replacement.25:30 He also upgrades the mainsail slider system.27:43 The new sails are designed to resist stretching under tight trim and feature high-visibility orange details.27:03 Aanderaa tests the reinforced rig in 17-knot winds, noting improved shape retention and structural integrity for his planned voyage to Greenland.27:11
