Joel,
That's an excellent idea. Of those who have them for racing, are they
tacked to the bow, to a pole laid on deck, or a custom sprit?

Its cheaper than Dwight's!
Based on the advice of others on the list I drilled a hole in the bow stem
and attached a shackle. I move the downhaul snatch block up to the shackle
and control the tack height with it.

For what it's worth, Anchovy's topping lift is comprised of a loop and
nicro-press assembly around a non-removable pin in the masthead. The pin is
pressed in and flared on both ends. If yours is the same, a pair of snips to
cut the old loop off, and a new nicro fitting should do the job.

Jake,
Based on my experience with both my 25 and my 38, I would tell you not to
bother with an A-sail for racing on your boat.
The benefit to the A-sail vs. a symmetric spin are that it is easier to
launch and handle (particularly if you use a sock), and there is a distinct

If it must be boat related, would suggest looking for comforts that she
enjoys at home and find similar things that are boat-ready to make cruising
with you that much more comfortable. Such as:
1. A cushioned chair
2. TV tuner for an iPad
That is a great idea! But I already have one for her.

Friction is a problem with reefing system, flattening reefs and cunninghams

Quick Reef which you install over your existing cringle which reduces friction.

Take a look at the Chute Scoop made by VF Shaw in Bowie, MD. Cost is from

If it's cool sometimes when you sail then a cashmere sweater is a

Jake -
I'll take the counter point to Rick with the emphasis on the type of racing
you do. The asym is an advantage for me for the following reasons:
We have a pretty active mid-distance fleet with point to point racing in the
15-25 mile range. It's not common that we have a leg on a race D
You can also buy sew on cheek blocks from any sailmaker or Sailrite.

Good question! When I tack it must drain. Until then it must collect
inside the stringer.

The stringers or "floors" on our 1990 boat are plywood beams made up using
several layers of 3/4" or 1" marine grade plywood and shaped to sit on the

I think on the older designs the stringers are a solid build up of glass
