The good thing about the older design is that when cruising, you can sail with just the genoa. I drive some friends crazy with their modern euro boats that cannot sail without the main up. I am pushing 7 knots, towing a dinghy with a 135 genoa in a 15 knot breeze and they can not keep up under f

I don’t think that’s correct. My boom is very small compared to the size of the boat, and my mast appears to be placed a bit forward of normal. I assume the 1975 design was IOR driven. From: CHARLES SCHEAFFER via CnC-List Sent: Thursday, November 3, 2022 4:33 PM To: Stus-List Cc: Hoyt, M

My 1973 39 came with a 13 foot boom, but the original drawings were for a 15' boom, which actually looked more balanced. When I replaced the boom, I made it 14', with a large roach. Cost me 6 Seconds, and was probably worth 12! Bill Coleman Entrada, Erie PA On Thu, Nov 3, 2022 at 4:32 PM CHARLES

I thought the shorter boom was due to designers placing the mast further back to get a large J measurement so 150% genoas were bigger. More sail area overall. Chuck S > On 11/03/2022 2:16 PM Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List > wrote: > > > > I believe that large mainsails were penalized und

I believe that large mainsails were penalized under IOR at that time so huge foretriangles became popular and also very large overlapping genoas. If I am not mistaken IMS and other rules that followed IOR were more based on performance than design and allowed larger main sails to come back and r

That 170 seemed to be popular sport back in the day.  We had one for our 30-1 when I bought it and I noted that two other 30s at the lake had them also.PHRF killed that sail; the additional penalty was deemed too much.  Crew didn't mind tossing them away.  By the time we finally got it trimmed

So, to add to the discussion………When I bought my 1977 38MKII, it came with several original 1977 sails, and a couple of them were 170 Genoas. I also had in the files, the original IOR certificate claiming the 170 as one of the sails. The owner (In Chicago) took a penalty for using the 170 and t

Does anyone still use 170% genoas? I have two that are old but with very little use. I’ll send them for shipping if anyone needs one or both. They are cut as deck-sweepers, if you have furling gear it needs to be the kind that comes off. Joe Coquina
