THE SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
INNOVATION IN HIGH PERFORMANCE SAILING YACHTS
CONFERENCE INTERNATIONALE SUR L’INNOVATION
POUR LA VOILE DE HAUTE PERFORMANCE
(INNOV’SAIL 2: 2010)
30 June - 1 July
Cité de la Voile Eric Tabarly, Lorient, France
SECOND NOTICE
Organised again by the Cité de la Voile Eric Tabarly (CVET), the Naval Academy Research Institute
(IRENav) and the Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA), INNOV’SAIL 2010 will build on the success
of the 2008 conference to provide an international forum for the presentation and discussion of the
latest scientific and technologic research and its application in the complex field of high performance
yachts and competitive sailing. INNOV’SAIL 2010 will provide an opportunity for scientists, architects,
engineers, sailors, sail makers and others involved in this fascinating and challenging field to come
together to share skills and knowledge.
The conference will be held in the auditorium of the Cité de la Voile Eric Tabarly in Lorient/Brittany,
which opened in the beginning of 2008 and is dedicated to the adventure which is modern sailing, of
which Eric Tabarly is an emblem. The Cité is situated in the heart of the old submarine base which,
after its closure in 1997, is being converted into a big nautical project centre called 'Le Nautic de
Keroman'. Already, an important builder of multihull sailboats, a manufacturer of carbon masts, the
logistical centre of the biggest European boat fittings supplier, and nine offshore racing teams are
installed here, next to the Cité de la Voile Eric Tabarly. The language for the papers and presentation
at the conference is English.
Topics will include all aspects of yacht design including the following amongst others:
• Innovative design for performance
• Aerodynamics
• Design of sails, masts, rigging.
• Hydrodynamics.
• Design of hulls, appendages.
• Structure and materials.
• Fluid structure interaction.
• CFD Validation.
• New experimental techniques.
• Performance enhancement in general.
