How, in our Baudelairean moments, can we not see these future princes of the clouds: how cumbersome and awkward they seem on the ground, these future kings of the azure.
Rigging, draping, autoclave, splicing, laminating, matting, deck fittings, mechanically welded—these are our terms. Our words to describe our masts. Some terms are very old, others very recent, reflecting the combination of sailing, a thousand-year-old technique, and new composites, those of today and tomorrow.
Yes, carbon masts are the way to decarbonize!
To sail across the oceans using wind power, our cargo sailing ships, which will carry more than a thousand tons of goods, need powerful rigging and a stable vessel, and for that we need exceptional masts.
At TOWT, contemplating the centuries of great sailing that have shaped us, we are delighted to benefit from the latest technologies, associated skills, and unique know-how of LORIMA, with whom, from Lorient, we are resolutely entering this century, because we must give humanity a chance to be here for a long time to come!
These masts and this concentration of technologies allow us, who have been equipping tall ships since 2011, to offer, with transport sailing, an alternative that provides a concrete, transparent, and honest response to the decarbonization of the #maritime sector, under the banner of #Anemos.
Thank you Yann, Arthur, Antoine, Philippe!
