Stripey Sails II

A while ago I wrote about my past experiences with sail stripes. It seems like sail stripes are getting more and more inventive these days. From Alinghi's new windsurfer-like main with red stripes and contrasting white stripes which I assume are still designed to aid in digitizing the sail shape:

to a boat called Onyx from Switzerland, which is sponsored by a printing company that specializes in extra large printing.

Very different usage of stripes!

Are you sure Alinghi haven't just picked up a Jamaican beer company as a sponsor?
