These Are The WRONG Sails For This Boat (+ Fiberglass Progress)!!

BoatworksToday Guide 3 months ago

Description

In this video I start taking measurements for new sails and quickly realize the mainsail that came with the boat is not correct for this rig. The luff is significantly shorter than the mast height, which explains why the sail geometry and boom height never really seemed right.

I walk through the measurements, compare what’s on the boat to what it should be, and outline the plan for ordering properly fitted sails from Precision Sails.

Laying fiberglass on the face of the Coosa sole panels after material arrival
Continuing interior prep work and sanding (slow but necessary process)
Quick update on Victron gear — delivery is scheduled for next week!
