[Public-List] Sails -- What do you carry?

[Marcelo D. Gentinetta]

I have a 150% on a roller furler but will be ordering a 135% at the end of this year. My first and second reef lines on the main are always on and ready to go no matter what the weather. I think a 135% is an all around good headsail for most weather conditions in a cruising scenario.
