[C38] Asymmetrical Sails

Wed Aug 12 01:20:21 EDT 2015

we use a seldon retractable sprit - tried it without - this is much 
better. We go out 32 inches past headstay for a 19 foot J (we sail in 
light airs a lot) we gybe between headstay and tack. We have a high teck 
rope bob-stay for a code zero - which we do not have. Our light 1/2 oz 
chute is a max for a 19 foot J. a bit large but dynamite in light air. 
Joe/Macavity  ps had to change bow pulpite to get seldon to fit
