The Atlantic is calling! ⛵ And the first crews are already getting ready to set sail!

ARC+ kicks off on November 8, followed by the ARC on November 22. And of course, plenty of you are preparing to cross the Atlantic on your own schedule. 🤩

Still working through your final preparations and thinking about adding a downwind sail to your setup? There might still be time to get a Parasailor on board!

We always have a selection of Parasailor sails in stock. Just get in touch and we’ll be happy to check which size fits your boat and whether we can get it to you in time for your departure. Find your Parasailor now.

Replace your gennaker or spinnaker and experience more performance, stability, safety and sailing fun.

⛵️ Some shots don’t need much explanation.

A Parasailor flying, the boat moving, the crew on deck — and a dolphin right there in the water. That’s bluewater sailing at its best: wind, motion, open sea and moments you could never plan.

Thanks for sharing this one with us. ⛵️🐬

Catamaran life begins downwind ⛵️ Two weeks to Barcelona 🤩

We’re getting excited! At the end of August, we’ll be meeting up with the Vision community at Port Ginesta — right on the water, with three Vision catamarans, sea trials, plenty of time to chat on board, and of course, Parasailor. 🧡 Thanks for bringing some Spanish vibes to our feed. 🎶 Looks pretty good on us, doesn’t it? 🇪🇸☀️

If the wind and weather play along, you can even experience Parasailor out on the water: August 28–30, 2026 at Port Ginesta. Register via the link in bio 👆

Catamaran life begins downwind. ⛵️ And this August, it begins at Port Ginesta in Barcelona.

We’re really looking forward to Vision Yachts’ Private Showcase from August 28–30: three state-of-the-art cruising catamarans, sea trials, and conversations with owners whose yachts already have thousands of nautical miles behind them. 🧡 That’s what makes this event so exciting: you won’t just get to look around the boats — you’ll also have the chance to try Parasailor for yourself, weather permitting. ☀️

We’re proud to be part of the event and to show you, both in theory and out on the water, what makes Parasailor different. Unlike a conventional spinnaker or gennaker, it stabilizes itself, manages pressure in the sail in a controlled way, and stays steady even as conditions change over many miles.

The result: a more stable boat, less trimming, and a more relaxed cruising experience. ⛵️ In other words, it’s ideally suited to the special demands a catamaran places on a downwind sail. Anyone joining us in Barcelona will be able to experience exactly that. Link in bio 👆

⛵️ Excess 11 – Built for bluewater.

The Excess 11 is a special catamaran in her class: 37 feet, built in series, yet with ambitions that go far beyond weekend sailing. She combines an impressive amount of space and comfort with a sailing feel you do not always find in cruising catamarans of this size. 🌊 Built for people who want to live on board, travel, and truly sail: to quiet anchorages, remote coastlines, longer passages.

That is exactly where the downwind setup becomes important. On a long passage, the right downwind sail helps define how long the boat can stay under sail, how calmly she moves, and how relaxed the crew feels underway.

Parasailor is a natural fit for catamarans like the Excess 11 because it combines strong drive with self-stabilizing sail behavior. You can see that especially well in this video: even in a seaway and stronger breeze, the wing visibly works to bring the sail back into a stable shape. More of the movement stays in the sail itself instead of being transferred directly to the boat.

Shipyard, crew or owner with an interesting Parasailor setup? Tag us, we’d love to take a closer look. 🤩

🌊 Bluewater at a glance

For many crews, the ARC is the first real step into bluewater sailing: several weeks across the Atlantic, trade wind windows, night watches, a small crew, the autopilot — and a boat that is working nonstop. For many, this is a completely new experience.

Many crews sail short-handed or with limited resources on board. At that point, it becomes less about speed and much more about endurance: How easy can the boat and crew keep going? How much does the boat move? How well can people sleep? And where does wear and tear begin?

Why Parasailor is not the only possible downwind setup, but plays a special role in the bluewater context, now on the blog. 👇

Bluewater Briefing 🌊 Between Trade Winds and Night Watches

When people dream about an Atlantic crossing, they often picture colorful sails and endless blue horizons. ⛵️ But bluewater cruising also comes with its own challenges. Two uninterrupted weeks at sea, like many crews experience during the ARC, can create the same strain as 50 to 100 regular daysails with just a few hours on the water each. For the boat, crew, and sail setup, that changes the requirements completely.

How cruising differs from racing, what waves, swell, and gusts mean for night watches and material strain, and why Parasailor is especially well suited for aft downwind courses — now on the blog 👇

Some boats are not defined by their length, but by their attitude. This one definitely belongs in that category: a Lagoon 52F built for serious cruising, flying a Parasailor that is clearly not trying to stay unnoticed. 😅

The Lagoon 52F is made for life on board: space, comfort, safety, and long days at sea. Its rig is designed to make sailing easier and more manageable for the crew. The Parasailor continues that same idea on downwind courses. It adds more sail area without demanding constant attention from the crew: the sail stands more steadily, pressure is handled in a more controlled way, and life on deck simply feels more fun.

Pretty good candidate for our Ship of the Month, isn’t it? Thanks staysalty yachting for the awesome shot! 🤩⛵️
