May We Introduce

The Cruising Code Zero

This is an allround reaching sail, originating from offshore racing for close power reaching. In cruising mode, it can also be sailed further off the wind. For cruisers it is a powerful but sail that can easily be handled from the cockpit when set on a furling gear. Cruising Code Zeros are designed with a straight luff incorporating an anti-torsion rope and a small positive roach for stable trim and easy handling. They can be made from heavy spinnaker cloth or a laminate.

Wind angles: 60–120°
more stable trim and easy handling

The Racing Code Zero

Our racing Code Zeros are made of an advanced laminate. The mid girth of Racing Code Zeros is designed to be 75% of the foot to avoid rating penalties. The causes a small downturn in the range of wind angles and handling but is accepted by racers due of the advantages in rating.

Wind-angles: 70-95°
Designed to get rated as an asymmetrical spinnaker

Well made, easy to operate and a gamechanger

We have ordered a number of Code 0 sails now from Greg and Sam at RTS Australia for both company use and client vessels. The service has been excellent, professional and always a prompt reply. The loft is helpful with meeting production requirements and sails are always delivered on time. For a good quality good value sail you don’t need to look past RTS. After sales support and advise is always forthcoming when needed and Greg and Sam come with a huge amount of hands-on experience which goes a very long way. The Code 0 itself is well made, easy to operate and a gamechanger on all the vessels well have fitted them on.

It adds a stunning turn of pace to the boat

Very pleased to report that the Cruising Code Zero you supplied for our Hanse 458 is superb – very pleased with the sail and prompt delivery, so thank you for your efforts. It adds a stunning turn of pace to the boat, so we’ll be highly recommending this to our future owners.

Faster than a cat

Forgot to let you know how the code 55 went. It’s fantastic had it out the other weekend in about 7 to 9 knots sailing at about 60 degrees and not even trying were doing around 6.5 knots. We were sailing with a 11.6 sea wind cat and our Bavaria 33 cruiser with the code 55 left him for dead. He wasn’t happy but we were. Great investment.
