Okay, let me try this again. Sometimes the hardest thing about getting
the right answer is knowing enough to ask the right question! Thanks to
those who answered previously. I now know a little about jib
nomenclature. But there was nothing about storm jibs I could find. Is it
just an any old tough little sail? Would a foot 90% to the mast qualify
as a storm jib? What is the general theory for a good storm jib?
Anything smaller than 100% made out of tough material?

That's the way I understand it. Made from a heavier material and smaller.
Usually the seller will quote fabric weight.
