International series sailing catamaran SPITFIRE Swell SPITFIRE
The sail controls are all-simple and use the highest quality fittings from Ronstan and Harken and the patented three position kick up rudder system makes launching and recovery easy. A unique mast rotation system that faces forward rather than conventionally aft ensures the trampoline is clear and easy to move around on.
The strong build quality is second to none, with other Loday and White designs 20 years on still proving testament to their 'build it to last' and trouble-free sailing policy.
The rig by Hyde sails and Sailspar is a master piece of modern development. The Kevlar mainsail and Mylar fully battened jib provide a light and stable shape that can be easily adjusted to suit a wide variety of crew weights. The full-length battens in both sails reduce flogging and extend their competitive life.
The asymmetric spinnaker is easy to use, fast and fun. The fixed bowsprit and launch system make spinnaker sailing a breeze. The sheet loads are very low, so even the lightest of sailors can enjoy the ride.
