Well, let's see.....the J29 owner rarely flies his big genny, the new C&C 32 owner is using a 135%....even my friend's J30 typically only needs a 110%. Dave, how often do you need a 155%??? We sail just fine with a 110% (and a rather tired sail at that) in everything over 6-8 knots of wind. Most mastheads around here have a RF 135-145% type sail and it's quite common to see them out reefed down or with no main up. Oh, and according to Mark at Doyle, he flew a 110 on his Beneteau 36.7 most of the time. You guys simply don't know crap and this thread is really proving it!!! RB 35s5 NY |
