Yes, Helix implemented in cruising sails focuses on reducing the need to constantly adjust the sails for optimum sail shape. For example, In a Helix Furling Gennaker the design prevents the luff from sagging to leeward and aft, while a specially engineered Helix cable re-distributes and shares load more evenly.
Helix for racing provides more control over a sails range and shape than ever before. One example of Helix in racing mainsail and headsail is that the cunningham becomes a more dynamic sail shape controller. Reaching or downwind sails achieve that “activation” using a specially engineered Helix cable to re-distribute and share load more evenly.
