GO-SAIL

Batten System: Bahama Hunter uses Bainbridge International's - Sailman 4000 full batten system. Marstrom has designed the mast to work with this system which reduces weight by eliminating the external track from the mast, They also designed special carbon slides for the mast which attach to the Sailman 4000 cars. Marstrom has also designed a special Headboard Carriage in corporation with North Sails to work with the Sailman 4000 system. The Sailman system was originally developed for the BT Global Challenge. Following 18 months of development SAILMAN was the only full batten system to be specified for use in the 1996 BT Global Challenge. It proved so successful on each of the 14 boats during their 30,000 mile circumnavigation that it was chosen again for the 2000-2001 event.
