The Maramu is a south wind in the Pacifique that can reach 50 kt

Just like the original Amel 16 meter was the “Meltem” (1970s) also a wind in the Aegean Sea.

I think the Mango and Fango come from the “lou mango fango” which is the name of the mistral in Provence and means “mud eater” because the Mistral dry the land.

There also was Mistral & Alize (model from the 1950s and 1960s) that everyone’s know.

Sharki is a south wind in the Middle east.

Pampero (model from the 1960) is a wind near Argentina.

Euros (production in 1970s) is Grec god of the East wind.

Garbi (production from the 1970s) is a wind near the Island Balearic.

Not sure either if there is a wind names Santorin or if it just refer to the island…
Don’t know about Copain (1960s)

May be Olivier can confirm or correct me!

In a way it is sad they did not continue to use wind name.
