Went sailing today with a variable, low wind conditions.  Spent much time looking at my wind vane at the top of the mast and started wondering the significance of the Compac emblem on the sail.  I can understand the "C" but what do the three arrows pointing inside the circle mean or are they just decoration?  Anyone know?

" C " for the Com-Pac name.

Arrows pointing inward toward the center of the  " C " . The name and arrows edifies how small yet compact the boat is.

As in as much boat as possible for it's size.

I sail a CP-19. Comfort and Joy.

Think of these boats as a Ford Pinto Station Wagon... well maybe not. One of the worst cars Detroit ever screwed together.

When I asked Gerry to explain the symbol to me a couple of years ago, he said, the "C" stood for Com Pac acourse and the arrows pointing inward symbolized everything being compressed.

I did not know that. That's what keeps me coming back, still learning things from you folks. Well, that and the laughs.  ;D
