Hi,
 
My comment then an introduction. 
 
>From the dimensions of that mainsail on ebay, in spite of the heading, it  is 
for a standard rig, actually just a tick short for a standard rig. the  luff 
on a standard rig mainsail is 28.8 feet this is 28.1 The tall rig should be  a 
full foot longer - 29.8'. My good news is that it is exactly the right size  
for my standard rig.
 
I am new to this  list, actually I was a member years ago and lapsed.  
However I still have my old Catalina 27, "Gypsy Star" Hull 3431, 1977- going on 
 15 
years now.. Atomic 4 power. We sail mostly the Hudson River, out of  Kingston, 
NY, race sometimes, but not on a regular schedule.
 
Been keeping the old girl afloat for some time now and she's been a  
reliable, and comfortable companion.
 
In my "other" sailing life, I am Sailing Master of the Periauger  "Mercury" a 
reproduction 18th century Dutch style periauger common on the Hudson  River 
in the 18th and early 19th century. They virtually disappeared with the  coming 
of steam and our Mercury, built by us and a Maritime Academy for at risk  
boys near Albany, is the first of her kind in over 150 years.
 
Nice to see so many other old girls still out there.
