Solano Blue Water Runner - Nylon
The Blue Water Runner (BWR) is a downwind sail that has been designed for easy and safe handling. The BWR is a symmetric twin sail with furling cable. The sail can be furled from the cockpit and is therefore very suitable for short-handed sailing and cruising in wind angles of 135-180 AWA. The sail is easily hoisted on the bow sprit and left after furling. The Blue Water Runner can also be used two-plied as reacher in light-medium wind.

TWA: 120-170°
TWS: 4-24 kn -
Heavy Spinnaker
The heavy Cruising Spinnaker is like the light spinnaker. Can however be used in more wind.

Furlstrøm
Furlstrøm is probably the most easy to handle downwind sail you will ever find. The hoisting, unfurling and furling is made extremely easy due to the built in cabling in the luff.
The sail was made to add some power to the boat when sailing at angles when the jib is no longer helping the performance much. You would use it in lighter conditions at angles from 70° TWA. With medium breeze you can sail as deep as 140° TWA with the sail.
TWA: 70-140°
TWS: 5-25 kn -
Furlstrøm XL
The Furlstrøm XL is a Gennaker that furl s around a loose anti-torsion cable. It furls from the top and down.
It can be used at the same angles as the cruising gennaker 130-165° TWA. It has a smaller head angle for better furling.
TWA: 130-165°
TWS: 10-24 kn -
Gennaker
The Cruising Gennaker is close to the A2 but with less roach in luff and leech, to make the sail more stable (easy sailing).
Can be used at angles from 130-165° TWA. Perfect together with our Spisock (Snuffer) for easy and safe handling.
TWA: 130-165°
TWS: 4-24 kn
