I bought the sail including sheets and downhaul line.  Perfect condition in 
attractive blue and white.  It was $740 just for the Sailrite kit.  This time I 
came out ahead on a project cost both in terms of time and dollars.  I’ll take 
‘em when I get them.

I wouldn’t pay half the new price for a suboptimal sail.
YMMV

For $300, give it a try.  For more, find out what a new right-size asym would 
cost.

Thanks Chuck.  The sail was cut for a Hunter306 fractional rig.  The purchase 
is definitely for cruising which would give us good broad and beam reach power 
in moderate conditions.  The sail appears to be something akin to a Code0 but I 
won't exactly know until I experiment.  I know the sailmaker and called him 
about it but he doesn't remember the specs or purpose.

Bill,
Those numbers sound more like a reacher than something you could sail deep 
downwind.  If you’re only planning to cruise with it and the price is right, by 
all means give it a whirl.  But if you’re racing and sail to a rating, you’ll 
find the sail to be very flat and undersized.

CnC'ers,
I found a locally available asymmetrical spinnaker for sale and need your 
advise on fitment.
The first number is Sailrite specs, the second number is the actual sail.
