"The attached image was taken while we were at anchor in Bodkin Creek, off Chesapeake Bay. The other boats we were traveling with were amazed how our "dancing" virtually stopped as soon as we had deployed the FinDelta."

I have attached a picture of your FinDelta #2 at work. You can tell by the break wall being awash, that the wind was really blowing. In winds up to 40 knots, my Nonsuch 33 held anchor. Last year, I broke loose with winds of 30 knots at this exact location, Cobourg Harbour, Lake Ontario, Canada.

Your sail held my bow to the wind and gave me a restful night’s sleep. Thanks for the sail. You have been the talk of many an anchorage.

"After I had purchased my FinDelta from you, I was pleasantly surprised that it was everything you promised. I immediately related my confidence in your product to my friend, who also purchased one shortly thereafter. Our sailboats used to swing through arcs of 180 degrees at anchor, and placed extraordinary stress on the ground tackle in any kind of blow.

"With your FinDelta I swung through no more than a 60 degree arc (i.e. 30 degrees each side) in 70 knots of wind during a squall. In winds of 25 knots or less, the boat rides dead downwind. We can finally leave our boat and go to shore with the confidence that it will be there when we come back and won't be "kiting" into another boat in our crowded northeast anchorages like Block Island where the photo was taken."

"Thanks for a summer at ease."

“Like most sailing yachts Chinook, our Oyster 56, is lighter at the bow with most of her bulk towards the stern which is fine and dandy while sailing but inherently unstable at anchor. She swings on her anchor like the tail of a happy puppy. This yacht likes a lot of room.

Our first stop after leaving the winter berth in Ayvalik on the southwest coast of Turkey was Sivrice Bay some 30 nm north. With a brisk wind forecasted, we anticipated ample opportunity for a full blown FinDelta sail trial.

Had chicken pasta on board that evening and much later a contented sleep was interrupted: A slight change in the gentle rocking motion had me sitting up, climbing up and checking outside to assess the conditions in the bay. The wind had strengthened; building from the south and the FinDelta sail was working its magic keeping us firmly pointed into the wind, preventing seesawing and the anchor was holding firm. We were well under control and I slipped back under the sheets to continue my slumber... “

"Here are pictures showing how your FinDelta riding sail works in the real world. We are anchored in a narrow cove near Cap de Creus, Catalonia, Spain in 25 knots of wind. The boat in front of us is horsing around, just as we would have done before we got our FinDelta. As you can see, now our 2008 Beneteau 43 Oceanis stays facing into the wind. Hint: For best results, in strong winds, you should tighten the lines hard."

"Bought the Pointer this summer while I was in Washington, DC visiting my daughter. I had brought my boat thru the Intracoastal Waterway and was unhappy the way the boat sailed at anchor. I saw the Banner Bay Pointer and ordered it. My sister and I left DC in September and headed back down to Florida, we had to take shelter in Antipoison Creek off the Chesapeake, just north of Deltaville to ride out the after effects of Hurricane Ivan.

"The remains of Ivan came thru that night, 35-45 kts wind and rain. The Pointer worked great, kept us on the anchor and we did fine thru the night. We used the Pointer whenever we anchored out, thanks for a great product."

"Anchor down in 33 feet of water in Harpswell Sound;
riding sail set, sitting pretty. Thanks…the riding sail worked well. It did yeoman duty!"
