Volare : The future of sailing

Sailing has gone from being an effective mode of transport to now only be a hobby. The main reason for this is that the sailboats have not had the same rate of development as other modes of transport. The main reason for this is that the sail is attached to a mast which creates a large heeling angle on the boat. Volare's solution to the problem is to use a kite sails instead of the traditional sail making so that torque is minimized considerably, which in turn means that you can reach significantly higher speeds. Volare has developed a unique solution for launch of a kite on sail boats, which contains several patented solutions. The product project team has developed stands up well against the competition in the market as it is easy to use, designed to launchas by only one person and that it takes up little space on the boat when not in use. With a less heel and higher speed are Volare on the way to creating the future way to sail.
