Published on June 11th, 2025by Craig Leweck, Scuttlebutt Sailing News Because new sails are a massive performance variable, there are a lot of old 'retired' sails. Keeping them out of the dumpster is a mission, but if they continue to be repurposed into duffel bags, those will soon be thrown away too.

Published on May 25th, 2025by Craig Leweck, Scuttlebutt Sailing News In the history of yacht racing, there are few moments when the sport has saved us from ourselves. Clever people keep making equipment better and more costly, and in the realm of offshore racing, less comfortable. Modern boats get to the destination faster, but are painfully wet and tiresome machines. Keeping these boats light boosts performance, which has led to the removal of traditional galley equipment and proper meals.
