Moonshine performs pretty well on most points of sail. The most speed I have ever gotten from her was 7.5 knots in about 20 kts of breeze.
Down wind is a different story. She is a dog down wind. I am trying to improve that. The current genoa may the the one that came with the boat in 1985. It seems to be a medium weight or heavier 135% UK sail. It would probably be fine for cruising but I would like to have a sail that will perform better racing.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to make a 32-3 go faster down wind? I think a new genoa is in my immediate future.
