At the end of 2020, Southern Spars joined forces with Magma Structures to deliver a new generation of superyacht rigs, DynaRig by Southern Spars.
To date, the free-standing rig concept has already been installed on two superyachts, the Maltese Falcon and Black Pearl, and has proved highly successful through its ease of deployment, efficient sailing performance, and low cost of ownership.
The DynaRig has the ability to revolutionize the sailing we know today thanks to its ease of use, with all the sailing systems being controlled in one control panel. It is a highly effective propulsion solution minimising fuel use as it can deploy and recover its sails within a few minutes allowing for the yacht to be sailed from the moment it leaves anchorage to the moment it arrives at its destination. The system also includes an integrated load monitoring system which continuously records the loads in the rigs providing invaluable information to optimise the sailing experience.

Southern Spars Rises to the Decarbonisation Challenge and Joins the International Windship Association

Southern Spars Rises to the Decarbonisation Challenge and Joins the International Windship Association
As momentum grows to deliver commercial wind propulsion technology solutions both as wind-assist and primary wind propulsion systems, everyone that follows this developing technology segment knows the iconic DynaRig concept, first envisioned by Wilhelm Prolls in the 1960s but now one that has proven itself as an effective alternative to conventional rigs for superyacht owners who have been looking to reduce crew numbers and optimize sailing time. Today, Southern Spars, a division of North Technology Group and specialist in DynaRig design and manufacture, has announced that it has joined the International Windship Association (IWSA), the member driven not-for-profit organisation that promotes and helps facilitates the uptake of wind propulsion solutions in the commercial fleet. Southern Spars recently partnered with Magma Structures to further develop the next generation of innovative rig solutions, with the aim of making the efficient, safe, and high-performance rig more accessible to commercial shipping.
