BAM GEARS UP FOR CARIBBEAN 600
North Sails Ireland are delighted to play a part in the success of BAM with Conor Fogerty
Conor had the following to say to us at the Volvo Sailing awards night:
"North Sails have been a key part of the BAM story since her first launch in 2015. The new J2 and J5 played a key part in the OSTAR 2017 and I am looking forward to racing with the new 3Di mainsail for the RORC Caribbean 600 race in 2018"
North Sails Ireland supplied the first inventory for Conor back in 2015 with which he won his class in the 2016 RORC Caribbean 600 race. These sails were a mix of 3DL and 3Di plus the Nylon downwind sails.
In early 2017, for his epic OSTAR-winning attempt, NS Ireland supplied a new 3Di Code 2/3 reefing jib and a No. 5 "Radian" jib for exceptionally heavy upwind work. These sails did the business for Conor and
BAM as she took first place in the Gypsy Moth Class in the OSTAR.
We have also just supplied a new 3Di offshore main for his 2018 RORC Caribbean 600 Race which starts very soon!
Good Luck with that one Conor, we will all be watching with interest.
