The FB-3 is an excellent weapon for heavy teams in BW light to medium conditions. The BW design followed to allow lighter teams to go faster in medium winds and 1st 2005 World Championship choppy water. This spring, we introduced the new BW- 2 mainsail. The BW-2 combines the fuller foot section of the FB-3 with the choppy water design of the BW to create an open water shape combination that can be powered up and depowered with rig tension. With BW-2 only a few regattas under the BW-2’s belt, the results speak for themselves. 1st 2007 North Americans 1st 2007 US Pan Am Qualifier 1st 2007 Don Q www.quantumsails.com/snipe +619-226-2422 [email protected] [email protected] SCIRA Information Snipe Bulletin Editor: Jerelyn W.
