Moody 31 Sail Dimensions

[newboatman]

I have just bought a Moody 31 Mk II which is currently in Spain. I know it needs new sails (they're knackered), but flying over there just to do the measuring seems an expensive way of proceeding.

Does anyone have standard specs for a crusing main and roller furling genoa to give a sail maker? Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.

Most sailmakers will have the standard dimensions for that boat, are you sure she has not been modified at all?

Is there a local Spannish sailmaker you could get a quote from, including a measure?

Ask your sailmaker. He'll know where to get standard dimensions for your boat. He could measure up a Moody 31 locally - there are plenty around, but I doubt that would be any better than the measurements on the web.

Enjoy your new Moody - we've had 2.5 really good years with ours, but i must say a new mainsail made a lot of difference.

I'm interested in how much difference a new main made to your cruising speeds. I have a M31 mk2 with original sails. They are soft, yes, but hold a reasonable shape. How much extra might I get out of a new main?
