Faster;
That was the sort of report I was hoping for.
Yes, Chuckles; been to the Bacon's site. That's where I collected prices and options/dimensions. I had contact w/a fella in Conn. that has a Neil Pryde
jib that is just under, by inches, an OEM sail. W/bronze hanks and in virtually new condition. He wants $150, and i guess shipping. Sounds like a deal

but I wonder if I'll find something closer to the season..one of those "free" sails would be nice LOL
Looking into reefing, as all the Chessie sailors know, WX is variable and I'd like the option of reducing sail without the added expense of a storm
jib. Then again... the *is* that spare, nasty main that could use some trimming
