The answer is clear. Whatever return your current rig shows, it will be enhanced by a reflector (Firdell type) in almost all conditions. Wet sails are said to enhance a return but this is of variable reliability.My question is WITHOUT radar reflector.
The guy is trying to convince me to fit radar reflectors. So I'm interested in knowing APPROXIMATE visibility without radar reflector compared to with. And is his line about a yacht with the sails up and no radar reflector only being visible from 3 nm away true?
