I ,m a newcomer to this forum, Ihave owned a 26m for a year now and have thoroughly enjoyed it. I have enjoyed this website and received heaps of good advice.
My dilemma is that I keep the boat in Queensland and live in Tasmania,so its not easy to measure anthing.
Would anyone know the measurements for a standard 26m mainsail and jib.IE luff, leech and foot.
also I would like some advice on purchasing a dodger.
happy sailing as time goes by
