Actually, I'm not proposing the cloth or weight. All the headsail quotes
have recommended Challenge High Mass Fiber in 8.88 to 9.1 oz cloth. 

 

For the main they are recommending either the HMF fabric at 8.88 oz or
Challenge High Aspect High Modulus 8.3 oz. 

 

I presume the cloth recommendations are driven by durability based on the
idea that I do coastal cruising (and the trip to Bermuda for the AC next
June) and only 4 or 5 charity (fun) races each summer.

Rick:

If you were getting say, a 150% genoa made from a lighter cloth than what
you are proposing (8.88 and 9.1 oz.),
