The Genoa sail, Stormjib, Jibs, and Code 0 sails are triangular sails typically located at the bow of the boat.

Genoa sail

This is the largest bow sail, distinguished from the Jib by its larger size and the fact that it extends past the mainsail. In both cases, they are positioned on the first stay. They are often rolled up, as their use is limited to deploying when the boat wants to increase speed.

Jib sail

The Jib sil is smaller than the Genoa and is positioned in front of the mainsail. These sails also have the furler set at a higher position.

Types of Jib sails:

  • Fofoque (second jib)
  • Fan Jib
  • Balandra Jib
  • Hunting Jib
  • Large Jib (first jib)
  • Main Jib
  • Flying Jib
  • Parabolic
  • Petifoque (fourth jib)

Code Zero sail

This sail is a mix between a Spinnaker and a Genoa, created for professional racing. Its function is to cover wind angles that are too narrow for Spinnakers and too wide for Genoas.

Stormjib

The Stormjib is used in exceptional conditions, such as heavy swells or other adverse weather. It helps the boat maintain stability in these situations. These sails are usually bright fluorescent orange, making them more visible in case rescue is needed, facilitating the boat's location and rescue.
