To all Chesapeake Bay sailors. on Sailnet/Chesapeake Bay there is a thread on a photo op. On September 12th (rain date the 26th) they are gathering at the Rte 450 bridge in Annapolis and shooting pictures on 2 passes (down river and then up river). If you are interested it might be a good chance to get some images of your baoat.

It was listed as "very good condition" and we got it for $450. I have been trying to google andfind out what length the spinnaker sheets are. One place it says 2x the boat length and another it says 2-1/2 times the boat length. The genoa sheets are 75'. What length sheets are those of you with with spinnakers using? Is there a website with some good info using a spinnaker? We picked up "The Complete Sailor" book at West Marine and it is the only thing we have seen with some spinnaker information.
