Sailing Phi^Phi: Episode

In this episode three day testing of gennaker with two CC sails was reported. Phi^Phi dinghy (Pasja 400) sails: crab claw mainsail (4.9 m2) and gennaker (3.6 m2) on free-standing mast as well as crab claw mizzen (1.0 m2) on A-frame mast. Drawsko Lake, Poland (20-22.08.2024). Gennaker shape was based on "Genaker do setki" sail (www.maderski.pl), which was originally designed by Janusz Maderski for Setka yacht. Gennaker presented on this movie was 50% downsized in comparison to its original version.

This modified gennaker was used with simple triangular CC sails. For more sophisticated design of CC membrane visit YT o'Lata sail episodes that were published previously. Particularly, you may see the unique o'Lata sail (used on Taumako proas) that was designed and prototyped by Janusz Ostrowski. More details about his sails and proas you may find on YouTube and FB channels:

Dinghy hull (Pasja 400) was designed by Janusz Maderski and modified by me to use a free standing mast. For original project and more sailing boats enquiries please visit his webpage: www.maderski.pl
