sail plans - 2008/02/03 21:51

I don't have sail plans but Jeremy Rogers of Lymington may be able to help. I have a brand new main which I intend fitting this spring and a one season old genoa - if you want the measurements of them let me know. [Skirmish]...

OK sorry for delay - I will get my new main measured. I have been advised that it is best to measure your mast, boom etc. as boats may differ - ask a sailmaker or look on the web at some of the sail maker sites. Will send mine ASAP. cheers!

Plus! - measuring old sails may cause errors due to stretch etc. You want the new ones to be nice and tight!
