I bought a very nice used light air jib from Sailing Anarchy and the LP measured 6" oversized. They did a good job trimming the leach to make it legal at a decent price. I also bought a used a C38 jib on ebay and Doyle had to change the luff tape from Gemini to a #6. They do very good work. I do some PHRF racing and belong to CBYRA and Doyle gives a 20% discount to CBYRA members.
