We are thinking of adding a used Asymmetrical
Spinnaker to our sail inventory and wanted to see what people think of appropriate dimensions.
Bluewater's stats:
Headstay: 47.5 ft
I: 45ft
J: 15ft
So my by understanding we want to find a used Asymmetrical
Spinnaker that has a foot of 24 - 27, but what about Luff? The best
advice I have found is that we want a luff as long as possible with out the sail dipping in the
water when it has collapsed. So any
advice you have in that realm would be greatly appreciated.
Also, I have found a AS with a luff of 47.6, foot of 33 (But that is a 220% J!) To big? We are currently coastal sailing, so we are not concerned with needing to downsize a bit for night time passages, as we are not making any.
I would appreciate any thoughts you have!
