Spinnakers

Is it possible to recut a Symetric spinnaker to a crusing chute or a asymetric spinnaker?

MPollack,

This is really a question for a sailmaker, however I would expect that answer to be no as a symmetric spinnaker seems much deeper than an asymetric, which are cut more towards a jib shape...
