I am fairly new to sailing as this will be my fifth year. I primarily cruise. I am over 60 years old and, although I enjoy the work of sailing, I dont want to make it too much work. My current headsail is a 155 and it is a lot of sail. The way I sail doesn't require that much. After posting

. The bigger sail is a bit of a hassle for cruising, but everything’s a trade-off. So, why would you like to have a 100 or 110 on hand? From: Brian Chambers via CnC-List Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2019 3:55 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Brian Chambers Subject: Stus-List 100 to 110 headsail My

If its a furling jib go with a 125 which will easily furl to 110. Go with 8 oz dacron cross cut for a long life affordable sail. Doyle made a dandy 135 for my boat and it really moves the boat along quite well, fast really. Good idea to deal with a local sail loft you might learn a lot. On Thu,

Brian, I have never sailed on a 34, but it looks very similar to my 38 in design but a little more tender. When I replaced my 155% I went with a 120% and I'm very happy with it for a cruising sail. Plenty of power for cruising, much easier handling I had the old UK loft (now North) in

Brian, At 100 or 110%, that’s pretty small — practically a storm jib — which I’m guessing you won’t bring out until it’s really blowing. In that case, I’d stick to some heavy-duty Dacron. Suggest you reach out to National Sail Supply — nationalsail.com. They make some sails at great prices.
