Title: VX One in the UK
Post by: Nathan Batchelor on January 16, 2014, 09:15:09 AM
Attached photo of our Intensity spinnaker we've had the VX One logo cut in by a local sailmaker.

We had a great day sailing GBR 149 at Queen Mary reservoir on the outskirts of London during a boat test by Yachts & Yachting magazine.

Nathan,
What North cut main are you using? And which cloth?

Same cloth as used in the US but film dyed to a 'smoke' colour. Cut - good question - latest North design I presume (the tag on sail bag doesn't give a model).

The spinnaker is an Intensity sail we've had logo'd.

UK Dinghy Show this weekend with our new demo boat - GBR 165 on display.

Nathan,
Thanks for the response. The smoke tint looks sharp. Probably a North Gen V sail. Should say on the sail near the tack. (PS - Lets get some royalty stickers on those sails too! :)
The VX will be the hit of the boat show I am sure! Post us some pics!
