I usually run a 110-115, you give up a little in the mid-range winds, but in light or heavier air I think it's better than running 130+ genoa, plus it's way easier to handle when under-crewed. Have done the same on a 24 and a 27, neither are particularly tender but the same principle applies. C

I saw a quick flash yellow on a sub up in Norfolk in early 2004 when I bought Imzadi. My boat had been berthed behind Willoughby Spit at the marina on the Norfolk Navy Base. I wonder if having a distinct light pattern at all wasn’t the source of a lot of discussion in the government. After
