--Finian Maynard smashes the existing world speedsailing record
by averaging 46.82 knots over 500 meters in Saint Marie de la
Mer, France. He used an asymmetric wide-sock sail I
designed for Naish. Also notable were an aerodynamic wetsuit
developed by ProLimit, and a board made by F2. |

The
purpose of this page to share the sails that I developed for
Naish in an effort to break the world speedsailing record. I
hope that my design ideas inspire others to think about new
ways to approach sailmaking. I am indebted to Robby Naish for
his company's commitment. I must thank Finian Maynard for his
passion, guts, and unequalled sailing skills. Explore the 'project'
links and galleries to examine the various wing and speedsail
prototypes created in a quest for speed.
