  • Patent number: 11724777
    Abstract: A sailing boat includes at least one mast with at least one first and one second section projecting upwards with respect to the hull and arranged facing each other in the orthogonal direction to the advancement direction for supporting a mainsail in two mutually specular and alternative operating positions, where the sections are connected and spaced out from each other by at least one overturning section of the mainsail placed at the top of them to allow the passage from one specular position to the other. The three sections of mast define for that purpose a first sliding guide for the whole mainsail that extends substantially along the whole extension length of the mast and the mast includes a second sliding guide positioned substantially at the top thereof and placed aft with respect to the overturning section.

  • Publication number: 20220119085
    Abstract: A rig for a nautical craft includes a reference plane intended to coincide with a symmetry plane extending in longitudinal and vertical direction of the hull of the nautical craft; —at least one wing; —at least one rigid support capable of supporting the wing and transmitting a propulsive thrust to the hull of the nautical craft given by the aerodynamic lift generated by the wing when it takes wind. The wing includes a first and a second main face opposite to each other, the rigid support being capable of supporting the wing at least in a first operating configuration in which at least a main portion of the first or second face is facing a first side of the reference plane and in a second operating configuration in which the main portion is facing the opposite side of the reference plane; the rigid support includes a wing sliding path for switching from the first to the second operating position and vice versa.
