Hi Eric When you say YRALIS allows 24% with no penalty is that in addition to a standard spin pole and Symmetric spinnaker or in place of the standard pole/spin?

PHRF Regulations The YRALIS allows for a retrofit bowsprit to be 24% of J without penalty for Windward/Leward racing. For distance racing it asseses a -6 second penalty. To support an unsupported length of ~52 inches, the Selden Selden 99mm Aluminum Bowsprit Kit - 10.4 Ft. was required. The 52 inches is comprised of the 42 in beyond the forestay allowed by PHRF plus the forward ring was mounted approximately 10" behind the forestay on the deck. If you have the same Harken furler and bow roller there is just enough room. This is something you can DIY. The uncut sprit was just over the limit for UPS so I had them cut it to avoid the freight charge. Let me know if you have any questions.

I only had 6 for our last race and the wind was 10-15 so we decided to forego the kite and took a 1st, 2nd and 3rd (only 3 boats competed). This weekend I am down to only 4 so probably won't compete, giving up a solid 2nd with a poss 1st if my crew were not in the BVI, etc. My thoughts are solely to have the option to use the asym if I don't have enough crew to do the symm Masthead kite so I would likely keep the asym size such that my rating is not changed. Thoughts on this plan from the list would be appreciated. I do realize that this is a complicated issue and I may have to get some expert advice on sprit length, asym sail size/shape not to mention figuring out how to fly it but I am starting with the collective list wisdom.
