The
jib is design for maximun wind speed, however, with a cross
cut design, the sail is very forgiven, allowing to be used
in moderate wind conditions, which is a great advantage
if the wind suddenly dies half way through the leg.
Cut:
The sail is cross-cut panels made of extra firm Dacron HTP
and radial reinforcements for clew and head allowing longer
durability. RBS tapered battens, visibility window and two
draft stripes
Jib
trim:
Once the wind picks up over 19 knots, you will need to change
to the little jib. Set the lead so the foot of the sail
touches the foot of the pulpit and the leech remains 2"
inside the spreader. If the wind goes over 25 knots move
the lead back 1" to tighten the foot of the sail and
to open the leech directly to the spreader end.
Also, when you first change to the jib, loosen the shrouds
one scale.
