What is the difference in size between a 155 and 145? Maybe 8 inches alone the foot?

Jake, You have added to my quandary! I was talking to a respected Quantum loft who knows my sailing area well. He is recommending a 144.9% genoa to get the 3 second PHRF credit. I am now concerned I won't get the pointing I need / want. Is it significantly worse than a 155% on the 35mk III? -- Jonathan Indigo 35mkiii On Oct 19, 2012, at 18:22, "Jake Brodersen" <captain_j...@cox.net> wrote: Dennis, My #2 is 142%. It’s darn near a #1. We don’t point well with it, due to the sheeting angle. It spends most of its time in my garage. It hasn’t been flown in about 5 years.

I tend to agree with Walt. A very successful racer friend of mine told me you never change down to a #2, you will always go to the #3. That seems to be true at least 80% of the time. I run a 3 sail program but rarely use the #2. I have 155, 125, 95. However, because wind force increases with the SQUARE of the speed, I really wish my #2 was bigger, like a 140 or 135. The boat always seems underpowered with the 125. Dennis C.
