It looks spectacular in photos…But on a real charter boat, the spinnaker is often a shortcut to disaster.
If you’ve ever flown one, you know the feeling — ballooned out, pulling the boat gently downwind.Beautiful, yes. But if you’re reading this, chances are you’re not racing — you’re on holiday.
We don’t use spinnakers. And we recommend that you don’t either.
Here’s why:
❗ It’s not for beginners💥 High risk of gear damage💰 Not covered by insurance🧑🤝🧑 Requires trained crew🌬️ Weather can change fast
One bad jibe, one rope wrap, one moment of confusion — and you’ve got a torn sail or tangled forestay.
Want to experience real sailing?We’ve got boats with classic full-batten mainsails for proper trimming.
Want to keep it simple?Roll mainsails are your best friend for smooth holiday sailing.
At JustSail, we focus on safety, simplicity, and enjoyment.That’s why we’ve decided:
❌ No spinnakers on board.
Enjoy your time at sea — without risking your trip on a 100 m² parachute.
