These so-called coded sails have become a big topic and there are endless options so we are in the process of deciding exactly how to cut the gennaker. I think it will be just like a very big genoa, made of a lighter fabric, on a continuous line furler. The torsion stay will be made of dyneema and sewn into the luff tape so that it can be removed when not in use. By having a fixed luff it will easier to furl although not quite as good as an Asym for going dead downwind. Clear as mud? This might warrant a pint of something at the rat?Frewiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09335851082459577996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561446117998158747.post-88384817120354311132020-02-09T21:40:21.437+01:002020-02-09T21:40:21.437+01:00So, this gennaker you speak of: did we go for an a...So, this gennaker you speak of: did we go for an asym, or a whatever the other thing was...?
