Sea trials for this Cigale 16, equipped with a complete set of Quantum Sails, ahead of its participation in the Route du Rhum \u2013 Destination Guadeloupe next November.<\/p>

The goal: assess the boat\u2019s performance under sail, fine-tune the settings and optimize the sail inventory in real-world conditions.<\/p>

During the trials, Calliste, our Quantum Sails expert, works alongside the skipper to get the most out of the sails and fine-tune the setup to match their sailing program.<\/p>

Because a high-performance sail is also a sail that is properly tuned and perfectly suited to both the boat and its program.<\/p>
