Already used by high performing racing yachts (America’s Cup, GP Sailing) the wing profiles are now available to a larger public. The adjustable camber adds an extra lift to the already high performance of the airfoil profile, 1.7 to 2 times more efficient than a traditional flat sail of the same surface area.
The autopilot not only pilots the yacht course but also trims the wing based on the power requirements set by the operator, delivering a truly new sailing experience, simple and accessible to all.
The wing mechanics integrates automatic release systems to always be on the safe side. The full retractability ensure minimum windage and a safe environment when motoring, anchoring or docking in marinas.

A true groundbreaking wind propulsion technology adaptable to any yacht.
The Automation drastically simplifies the operation of the wings, turning the Aeroforce wings literally into wind engines, simply operated through an on/off switch and a power throttle.
