Hi, all,
what would be the recommendation for the storm jib if I use a furler? I saw those sails that fit over the furled genoa (GailSail?), but I am deeply unsure if they make any sense - the furled sail will provide at least as much windage as that sail (mine is constructed of a kind of heavy Dacrone and furles in a hefty bundle). Any thoughts to share?
The question kind of popped out from the halyard tension conversation in "Maintenance and Mechanical" (Seth - thanks for a great explanation), but it would be a huge off-topic there.
Thanks,
Stan
