INTRODUCING
THE FLYING LATEEN
A revolutionary new sailboat rig for architects, builders, riggers or owners designing new boats or retrofitting older boats...creating:
the world's fastest sailboats
to get underway
to anchor or dock and secure
the world's easiest sailboats
to get underway
to sail
to anchor or dock and secure
furler reef for throttling back
big sail for light winds
a properly reefed sail for high winds
put the tiller over to tack or jibe
that's IT!
point high into the wind
ease off and fly
The Flying Lateen rig can be fitted to any size or type boat...mono-hull, multi-hull, centerboarder, keelboat, beach boat, daysailer, cruising boat, charter boat or private yacht....
with equal effectiveness.
The "drop down" rig on the little sunfish is as simple as it gets. The rigs on the bigger boats employ everything that one might want to build into a larger boat, including motorized roller furling if desired. Sizes from 14' to 30' have been sailed extensively over the last several years and have performed well in all weather conditions. The rig has proven to be what it was intended to be...a rugged, simple and delightful one under which to sail.
