Hi forum
We have a First 40.7 and are in the process of ordering a new main. The current sail is on rollers but we were hoping to have the luff go up the mast groove for the new one. Can anyone tell me if this is possible on this yacht? This was the arrangement we had on our previous boat (Sigma) but the groove channel on the Beneteau seems more of a rectangle shape than round.
Also, as an aside, we were going to go for a 3 + 3 batten arrangement with the top 3 being fully battened and the lower 3 just partial. For racing can anyone comment if this is a good setup?
Thanks!
