I just blogged about this, and the benefits of a stay. In the end I decided not to go that route, shying away from the extended deck work to provide a secure fixing point.

Hmm, for me, as an inveterate tinkerer, such a requirement is a GOOD thing! <g>

I read your blog and came to much the same conclusion as you as to choice of sails, right down to number 5. I also fly my symmetric spinnaker asymmetrically using the ATN device and a (home made version of the ATN) sock to get it up and down. Works much better than expected. I'll probably spring for a real assym one day, but I currently feel no real urge to do so.

Lol, that would be the number one reason to shy away for me!

Interesting on sails. I also feel no need to get a real asym. Maybe if I won the lottery or summin
