Another sail loft to add for Taipan spinnakers and other sails is Landenberger, http://www.landenberger-sailing.com/ Glenn Ashby also works there so a lot of Taipan experience. My current mainsail and jib are also from here and very happy with the speed.



Just bought a spinnaker for my taipan and have tried it out once in about 6-8 knots. Sets really well and did not have any fluttering at all in leech as mentioned in other posts. Ratchet point at same point as jib blocks. Will be sailing it again this weekend so hopefully get a bigger breeze.



Still working out how to store the spinnaker besides on the deck. Snuffer just in front of bridle should work well as the spinnaker measures 2 metres in length when using points to draw it in.



Cheers
