Sails cannot be folded away, they can be rolled in, this however doesn't change the hight of the mast they are on. Also the weight/drag ratio seems to be better.
We can't find fabric anymore? Shit. And I suppose we can't collapse a mast the way these guys collapse a mast if there's fabric involved. Oh well.
Fabric breaks a lot faster than a metal sheet...
Bro do you really think that? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
We have dramatically better flexible teenage materials than any metal you can think of. Ever heard of kevlar? That's only the cheapest and most well known example too! Don't tell me you're not embarrassed to have said that shit.
I will just block you now, you are annoying, you don't understand shit (or don't want to) and you are immature.
I'd rather be immature and right than anything like you.
