Hey All,
I'm about to order a new Mainsail for my AHPC wingmasted Taipan and i've a few questions if you've got a second:
- what is the actual sail area ( excluding area of the mast) i should order so that the sail + mast measures compliant ?
- i'm going big head (800 - 900 mm) - is this too big a head (hydrocephalic ?) ? Will I suffer in big wind w/ this sail (last two seasons have raced in a true range of wind velocities and pretty equally) ?
- I sail solo w/ gennaker only and have always felt my stock main was not optimal. What makes your replacement main faster than the sloop main ( cut , camber , roach...) ?
- ordering from Glaser Sails because the I14 and Acat(world champs A2) crowd where I sail all have 'em or want 'em - if you've a second, could you comment on the Acat sail design on their website as my sail will be essentially the same (
www.glasersails.com).
Thank You -
Paul
