Deckchute was invented by Henrik Bartholin looking for a way to make shorthanded spinnaker sailing easy and safe, while sailing with his family.
The family spends their summer holidays cruising in Scandinavian waters, sailing long distances in all kind of northern weather, day and night.
Henrik has been racing as a bowman for many years.
