I use this site about once a month sometimes more
http://mauriprosailing.com/techinfo/boatspecs/boatspecs.htm
it has an exhaustive listing of rig dimensions and also has handy
formulas to calculate sail areas and stuff, from which you can then
determine SA/D ratios (sail area/displacemt)
from the fine folks at MauriProSailing.

Pat, 170%, 150%, 135%, ect, is a percentage of the "J" measurement. I know
it's not measured along the foot but it will be within a couple of inches.
Example: Standard rig Cat 27 "J" is 11.4' so... 11.4' x 170% = 19.38'
Sailmakers use this to determine if and where they might need to install
track.

Subject: catalina27-talk: Gennny ---- 135 %--150 %-170 % ??

I have a Std rig. My Genny was on when I purchased it. I was told it was
a 170 % ?? What are the the foot lengths for a 135--150--170 ?
Full unfurled the Clew on mine comes aft of the Cabin hatchway.
