Hi everyone thanks for the good points to consider. I’m a roller furling novice and not sure how well genoa “reefing” works.
I do have #3 genoa (maybe 100%) which is older but hardly used, and in reasonably good shape. Racing is fairly low key here in Comox and the boat has been kitted out pretty heavily for cruising. I’ve had the boat 4 years now and have done “almost” as much work as Windstar, and zero documentation, with the exception of filing away lots and lots of invoices! I’ll talk to the sail maker (UK) and let you know the decision, and the rationale behind it. Thanks again! Andy
