We are thinking of purchasing a new head sail and would appreciate some thoughts on what others use as their primary head sail. We have a 1979 MKI Sabre 34. We sail primarily around cape cod, nantucket and Marthas Vineyard. With a few extended trips during the season.
Not sure what size head sail we should purchase. I am thinking a 130 would be the most versatile. In heavy air our 100 works fine but its old and getting thin and limits our pointing ability. Our 150 is old, thin and limits our ability to point close to the wind and seems to big for our primary head sail. FYI - The main sail is about 6-yrs old and is in good shape. Any thoughts on what would be an appropriate size to have as the primary head sail on the boat would be helpful?
Thanks in advance-
Joe
