We knew Felicità came with a spinnaker when we bought her, and we knew where the spin was. But, we had yet to take the sail out of the bag and really investigate exactly what we had. Much to our delighted surprise, we discovered we have an extremely colorful asymmetrical sail–also called a Gennaker. And, happily the spin (translation: the ropes we use to trim, or control the sail) sheets and blocks were stored in the bag.
And, the best surprise is that it comes complete with an ATN sock. That is going to make life a lot better when it comes to setting the sail, and the fact that we don’t have to buy a sock is a welcome turn of events for our checking account. We’re excited to actually get it flying and hope to catch that on video!
