head area that keeps it stable even in a light breeze. It’s easily deployed using
a reverse 3:1 purchase which requires only a 5-foot pull to set the spinnaker.
The tack line is connected to the halyard so the same pull that raises the
spinnaker also pulls the tack out to the bow of the boat.
To lower the spinnaker you simply uncleat the halyard, pull the retrieval line
and the sail folds up for easy storage in the spinnaker sock. The retrieval line
is led through a lower patch on the sail and attached to the upper patch. When
the retrieval line is pulled the spinnaker folds up in three portions and stows
neatly inside the spinnaker sock. Only the three corners are left outside the
sock, ready for the next hoist.
SAIL PLAN (CONTD.)
The hull shape is a development of the mxRay as well as SpeedDream,
a new innovative design concept that relies on efficiency over power
for high performance. The mxNext hull is very sleek and narrow on
the waterline. This is part of the secret of the boat’s speed. A narrow
waterline reduces wetted surface which in turn reduces drag translating
into speed. The cross sections of the hull are fairly deep and rounded
forward, gradually shifting to an elliptical shape that gets flatter as you
move aft. This is a perfect planing hull.
The aft-swept wave piercing bow slices effortlessly through waves at
any point of sail. There is plenty of reserve buoyancy in the forward hull
sections so that if you surf down a wave and the bow starts to become
submerged, the buoyancy immediately kicks in and lifts the bow right
out of the water. There is almost zero chance of pitchpoling.
The elegant hiking wings are there to allow you to get your weight as
far outboard as possible. They are also ergonomically designed so that
you can hike comfortably for long periods of time. The principal control
lines; the mainsheet, vang and cunningham are all within easy reach of
a full-hiking position.
