[Public-List] Rigging

[Michael Grosh]

If I remember correctly, some sailmaker at a seminar had worked out the
largest genoa ratio on the Alberg (by class rules) is 163%.
I had a full luff, raised foot #2 (I forget the parameter I used for J, but
fairly big, as I also have a working jib) made for use as a primary cruising
sail, and it works great for that. The wife tends to go into conniptions,
just on principle, I think, whenever she sees the #1 come out.

When I bought my Alberg 30, it had a small self tending jib only.  I assume
it has always been that way.  I now sail with loose footed jibs, 80%, 140%
and 170%.  I didn't change the rig any.  I'm curious if A-30's with the
small self tending jibs had smaller stays.
