I had a San Juan 24 for many years and found that a 100% blade jib (bulletproof) with 90% hoist and reefable combined with a double reefable main could stand up to most everything that I was willing to sail in. We could stand up to 35kt winds and it was a tender boat. Here, most anything higher doesn't last more than 20-30min. Can drop sails and bare pole unless we run out of lake.After that run for cover!RonWild CheriC&C 30STL

I have received a quote from a local loft for a Lee sail and the price seems reasonable. My question is what would be the ideal dimensions for this sail where it's use will be when I'm caught 18 miles from shore and a prairie thunderstorm decides to cross my bow which has more or less become one of those accepted occurrences where I sail.
