Where do the products come from?
These are the sails used for the OceanoScientific Round the World Expedition 2016-2017,
the very first oceanographic sailing campaign without CO2 emissions below 40 ° South,
solo under the three major continental capes: Good Hope, Leeuwin and Cape Horn.
This expedition made it possible to collect unprecedented scientific data intended
for the international scientific community
for a better understanding of the causes
and consequences of climate change.
We have created a limited series of unique pieces with the three flat sails of the OceanoScientific Explorer "Boogaloo" :
Mainsail, Solent-J2, Trinquette-J3
in collaboration with 727 Sailbags.
