WANDERLUST 3 Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 We are also using no class sails. What we would like to know is How can optimize the boat for that rules. Also what sails and measurements are you using for the best performance. We have done some improvements: - Barber inhauler - Jib car system like the J99 - Bobstay for code zero - 95m2 assymetric We are thinking about: - Remove furler and put a jib with soft hanks and 29 m2 - remove backstay hidraulic and use a cascade system and a flicker. Also thinking about a squaretop main to use 36 m2 of main any more options??? We have problems in light winds but we dont want to use a 155 genoa Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spreader Boots 5 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I would start by going to the ORC website and create an account. From there your can download certs and see measurement changes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
