Discover how our em2 mizzen sail changes the way you sail and why it is the indispensable upgrade for your rig.
The em2 Mizzen - A Pioneering Safety Feature
Safe canoe sailing with the em2 mizzen: The main advantage of our mizzen sail lies in its ability to significantly increase safety under challenging wind conditions. In critical moments, the mizzen plays a decisive role. Through the skillful combination of hauling in the mizzen and easing the jib and mainsail, your sailing canoe immediately heads into the wind and remains stable in this secure position. Now, you have the time to catch your breath, assess the situation, prepare your boat for the next steps, and calm your pulse before continuing. This is an essential safety feature that proves its worth especially in challenging situations.
Optimal Performance and Compatibility
Agility meets speed: Moving the sail's center of pressure backward to the middle of the boat significantly improves your sailing canoe's response to rudder movements, allowing you to navigate much more precisely. The increased sail area provided by the mizzen makes your boat faster in light winds. And when it really starts to blow, the tightly hauled mizzen helps you turn, pushing you through the turn into the wind.
Seamless Integration
Our em2 mizzen is designed to be seamlessly compatible with existing rigs such as Mistral or Albatross. The mizzen complements and expands the functionality of your sailing gear without compromising on handling.
Easy Installation and Handling
With straightforward assembly and a compact packing size of only 115cm and a weight of 3kg, our mizzen sail offers not just enhanced sailing performance and safety but also maximum flexibility and user-friendliness.
Your Safety Plus on the Water
The combination of improved maneuverability, increased speed, and great safety features makes the em2 mizzen sail an indispensable extension for your sailing adventure. For safety reasons, we recommend using the ketch rig (with mizzen) on canoes exclusively in combination with an em² outrigger.
