dimensions for CD 33 spinnaker?

Post by Jim East »

I need help finding the dimensions for CD 33's spinnaker or jenniker. The boat is packed up and a long way away. Any CD 33 owners have his/her leech/foot dimensions written down and any other knowledge you think might be helpful?

Calculate

Luff = "I" +/- 8% (your +/- choice) depending on the wind range.
Foot = 160% to 180% of "J" again your choice.

To determine area of a typical Asymmetrical:
Mast height off deck X J X 1.7 X 0.85 = area.

I got these numbers from sailrite. I have used their numbers on my boats and found them pretty accurate. :) Hope they work for you.
