Hi!

The guys from Shanghai had a nice sunday on the frosty water [its not by incident called 'frostbite regattas' ;-)]seeing first time four 4.9 with spi in singlehanded mode sametime. course was very short so a lot of manouvers held us warm and tension up!

so we finally managed also to get closer to our jibfree trampoline idea by measuring some essentials.

what we think can be a possible 'window' for a new jib design would be like this:

leech: 5.20 m
luff: 5.30 m
base: 1.30 m

I would like to compare our proposal with what are the sizes of the selftacking jib you might be using on a taipan 4.9 in F16 set up?

would be great!

thanks!
