We had one in the late '60's (friend's boat) that was about 180%. If you flattened that out and made it with a bit more of a luff/leech consideration, you would have an asym.

I know when I stretch back Calypso's 25 year old ¾ oz spinny on a tight reach the clew is back where a 160 - 170% headsails would be.

We are assuming the pole = J. I don't know if asyms are necessarily smaller. There are some big-axx Code 0's out there. The penalty may be due, in part, to the greater efficiency on a beam reach.

I could see getting a rating hit for a sprit, just like a pole longer than J. Can't see why using an asym with standard pole would hurt his rating? Is he mounting the pole further forward? I think there is more to this.

Flies both from the pole. He gets a 3 second hit for the asym (Ches Bay) and does not think it is worth it for sailing on the Chesapeake (not a lot of east/west winds for reaching). But, finds it is very handy for Newport to Bermuda ("it was 'the bomb' last time"). Figure that the 3 seconds is always so there has to be a lot of reaching to make up for the windward and leeward parts of a race. And, he says it is a b...h to jibe. Must go all the way out in front of the boat as you are turning the boat - has many opportunities to tangle up. And, a heavy boat like his doesn't get that quick acceleration that a light one may. He's hoping that ChesBay PHRF will re-think their policy.
