H28 sail measurements?

[KiwiSailorMan]

Does anyone know suitable measurements for H28 foresails and main?

I imagine you're talkin the NZ plastic version? If so, this mob would surely assist: H28 Yacht Owners' Association Incorporated - Home

G'Day KSM, and welcome to CF...

A word of warning: if you are wanting the measurements in order to buy second hand sails or such, remember that there are a lot of different boats that call themselves "H-28". For that purpose, you should really measure the specific boat that the sails must fit.

If you need the measurements for analyzing the SA to D ratio or such, then generic measurements will suffice and a site like sailboatdata.com will likely have what you need.

Cheers and good luck in your quest.

You have to be a little careful as some of the kiwi ones had twin spreader rigs while others had single and some have different sections to others. Best bet it to measure what you have as they vary a little bit. But rough measurements are:

P 8.8m
E 3.5m
I 9.5m
J 2.9m
