Скачать или смотреть Inside the Admiral’s Cup: Ino Noir’s Fastnet Focus with North Sails Helix

“The Fastnet has always been a big goal for us – that’s what the boat was built for.”

North Sails expert Mike Henning, tactician and race manager on Ino Noir, dives into how the team is approaching today’s offshore opener. James Neville’s Carkeek 45, launched in 2023 and racing under the RORC burgee, was purpose‑built for offshore competition. Now it’s time to prove it.

With rating optimization in mind, the team worked closely with North Sails to refine a lean, offshore‑ready inventory. Using Helix Structured Luff technology, Ino Noir carries fewer sails with more range, maximizing aero performance, cutting load on the boat and rig, and supporting IRC goals.

“A lot of testing, a lot of sail trials, but making sure they’re all spot on for the racing.”
