During any Given regatta, one
sailor will cross close enough to windward of
another so that there boom passes just above the
wind indicator on the leeward boat. Any Laser
sailor knows what happens next. The mainsheet
eventually rips the vane from its bracket never to
be seen again. There had to be a better way
and there is the C-Vane. The C-Vanes
design allows the mainsheet to slide down the
bracket making a casual spin of the vane without
hanging up and away it goes, leaving the wind
indicator still attached and fully functional.
"A brilliant, smart and cleverly designed wind
indicator. The C-Vane is my choice to point me
in the right direction."
-Brendan Casey, Australian Laser Champion
