Hi all, My winter project this year is to install a deck mounted bowsprit and fly an asymmetric spinnaker while racing.
I am going for the max length with out a PHRF penalty, which in our YRA is 24% of J. This will give me a sprit that is 42.6 inches. This decision is driven by a couple things. First, the ability to get 7 or more experienced crew to manage the Symmetrical spinnaker. And to reduce the overall complexity in sailing the boat. I am wondering if any one else has made this switch and what their experience has been. I will certainly share my experience. Best, Eric C&C 34/36 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "I want 10,000 tough guys, and I want 10,000 soft guys to make the tough guys look tougher!
