1. Great video. Looks like a perfect sail selection.

2. Did not know that an in-mast furling sail had reef points at its mainsail. I thought it was infinite adjustment. So, you do you have buttons for each reef point then?

3. Hi guys, can’t wait to see this yacht on the water , Thanks for the video. Keep up the good work Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia from the big island. The one leg and tapdancer 🧑🏾‍🦽🦘🐨🏝️🇦🇺🌏🏝

4. I'am a native canadian indian living in the netherlands since I was 7 yrs old. I love the dutch maritime history, and their boat building knowledge and sail design skills. love your boat, and channel thanks. "behouden vaart" as the dutch say. safe voyage

5. Had custom UK sails on my boat for years. The design was truly amazing and never let me down. They are top shelf!

6. Beautiful clean facility. Thanks to Sipko for his expertise explaining sail design, reefing points etc… And, Marcel for the loft tour. I didn't catch the sail makers name or read it in the transcript. ?
   Thanks for sharing.

7. May I ask why didn’t you chose in boom furling?

8. Just yesterday we were saying "Hey, it's about time for Paul and Sheryl to give us an update on the progress on our new adopted boat they are building for us. Good timing! Thank you, guys, for taking the time to make these videos and keep us in the loop

9. Very nice! – QUESTION – One issue we can't figure out – the "exposed" double rudders, especially when going north in ice situations. It was not long ago when everyone said that a skeg was a critical piece in any serious sailboat. We would want to go up what is called "the inside passage", in case you don't know it is the west coast of Canada. But it has lots of floating logs. Could you sail that coast with your sailboat? Why are you not scared of the rudders?

10. Very interesting segment on sail design! :¬) Webbed USA

11. Wouldn't a working staysail provide you with a more powerful and flexible sail plan? and give a downwind combination to use with the genoa, when the wind is too strong for the Code 0? Then when reaching, it helps keep the sailplan lower and allow a more manageable genoa size to be used. I guess it's down to your sailing preferences and the relationship with the lifting keel.

12. Always great, interesting and informative

13. Thankyou 👍

14. Experience, sailing environment, extreme weather sail selection options.

15. Lovely episode, again! Ee really like the choices you made when it comes to the sailplan, very sensible.
    Finny fact: back in 1978, Rob's dad made a platbodem himself, right on the driveway of the house. It was a 9 meter Huitema Zeeschouw. The sails: De Vries. Then still located in Lemmer.

16. Where can I see your tv show? I can't find it anymore on cable. Sooo happy to see you guys are still alive and well ❤

17. Two questions if I may:
    1. Why did you choose in mast as opposed to boom furling?
    2. Does babble cover ‘Klingon’😉

    Great stuff – keep it up.😀👍⛵️

18. What a boat this will be!

19. Dyneema rigging goes slack in the cold. Will the sails billow in the cold?

20. I am a big fan of the double headsail idea.

21. love your channel i am not a sailor but find sailing interesting maybe in another life, i may become one. But great to see the building aspect of it, can't wait for your next post. cheers from New Zealand.

22. Om jeg noen gang setter avgårde med egen seilbåt, tror jeg spansk ville være greit å kunne!

23. I have several issues with this approach to sails:
    I dislike in mast, or any mainsail roller furling as you end up with a too flat main with too little roach. It may or may not be easier to handle than a slab reef main, but the sail itself is wholly inferior in both shape and planform. Not for me. Ever.
    Nautosphere Voyager is unfortunately restricted to cross cut construction. The loads on your boat are just to large for cross cut sails to have any shape life. The leach loads will mean the leach will stretch quickly, and in conjunction with the too flat main you will experience reflex in the leach within the first 5000 miles or so. None of the spectra/dyneema reinforced sailcloth is all that much better than Dacron , especially when looking at off axis loads. Your sail is too big and your displacement and righting moment too large for a woven dyneema cloth.

24. Thank you so much for sharing all of this. ~ So much knowledge here ~ That lottery ticket. Then I'm your best friend. Oh yea! 😉
