Anyone with experience of rigging stormsails on a Sadler 32?
Mine has a roller genny and lazybag type main, and a babystay down to aft edge of forehatch which is too close to mast for a sail.
1) I worry that a sleeve type jib is too far forward and too high. Is it? - is a seperate inboard forestay (demountable?) an answer? Or other ideas?
2) How to fit a trys'l? Seperate track to side of existing main track, or is there a better way? Seperate haly'd or use exstg/topping lift?
3) Advice on best size/construction of such sails appreciated.
Plan shorthanded ocean cruising so simplicity is of the essence.
4) Finally - Anyone got such sails and want to sell?
Cheers!
