The main image of the logo is clearly representational of a sailing boats sails and plan elevation of the bow of a sailing boat.
By combining the contemporary image with the more traditional type, it gives the company that authentic and affluent corporate image (for cruising sailors) and additionally appeals to those who are younger, athletic and fashion conscious (racing sailors).
The diamond shape logo image has been incorporated into the second variation to communicate quality.
