Summary:Easy to install and very flexible, acts against the folds caused by turbulences, recovering normal air pressure inside the sail profile, shaped as a double sail stiffener and recovery device, to be installed on the bottom surface, made up of a cover (10) and a carbon fiber core (9), telescopically extensible in the case of the first recovery device and capable of installation both at the meeting point between the leading edge and the bottom surface and close to the trailing edge, allowing the end to be curved, whereas the second recovery device, also double, is connected in orthogonal arrangement between them.
