[@philskype101]

I have this Delta on my oceanis 48. Its very good and very easy to set up.

[@philzail2532]

I'm awed at how small it is furled up.

[@LoanwordEggcorn]

Looks good! So presumably the tapes on the windward and leeward edges of the sail are stiff (in the perpendicular direction) in order to allow it to furl, right? This is a nice design!

[@pepperrent]

Thank you for your comment
The luff of the sail is rigid with an aramid braid for better rolling

[@LoanwordEggcorn]

@@pepperrent Merci e grazie! That's exactly what I was thinking with my tape comment. The aramid braid is like a flat, stiff tape that is relatively rigid lengthwise, but rolls easily in the other direction. This is a really good design.

If you attach 2 sheets - 1 for each side, then you don't need to go forward on deck when jibbing!

[@pepperrent]

1 or 2 sheets are possible. We wanted to show that a minimum of hardware is necessary to use a Code D. Of course, the use of a second sheet can not go ahead to jibe.

[@philskype101]

Why would you put two sheets on it? Only using it in light winds.

[@raymiller315]

@@philskype101 one sheet or side so that when you gybe, you don't have to unreeve the whole thing, walk to the foredeck, then re-reeve the sheet in the other side.

[@kentwood2914]

to jibe, why wouldn't you just let the wind "toss" it around the outside instead of manually feeding the sheet through the slot between the Code D and the genoa? Of course that would take two sheets.

[@pepperrent]

You are right, it is also possible to pass the spinnaker forward. It is enough to use two plays. Be careful that the counter sheet does not pass under the hull

Why do they never use any safety gear in theese type of videos?

Not to mention the
“Jeans!!”

[@zooknut]

Because they go out in 2 knots of wind to show how easy it is to sail and give the impression its effortless.

[@stephanczapiewski3078]

Or when there is some wind...🙄

[@frankstocker5475]

The music put me to sleep.

[@markmole8488]

Put some headphones on and its got some good stereo effects, it was still soporific
