I wouldn’t pay half the new price for a suboptimal sail. YMMV Joe

The sail was cut for a Hunter306 fractional rig. The purchase is definitely for cruising which would give us good broad and beam reach power in moderate conditions. The sail appears to be something akin to a Code0 but I won't exactly know until I experiment. I know the sailmaker and called him about it but he doesn't remember the specs or purpose. bd On Tue, Jul 10, 2018 at 10:40 AM, Chuck Gilchrest via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: Bill, Those numbers sound more like a reacher than something you could sail deep downwind. If you’re only planning to cruise with it and the price is right, by all means give it a whirl. But if you’re racing and sail to a rating, you’ll find the sail to be very flat and undersized.

The first number is Sailrite specs, the second number is the actual sail.
