new main


I have worked out a new main sail for the old school Rapscallion. The sail has a big roach. In this case, the roach has nothing to do with weed, it is a bigger than sail than a regular main. I designed the sail to match the profile of a melges 24 main sail. The sail is class legal according to the laser 28 class rules, so I shouldn't take a PHRF hit for it.

I also designed a "spitfire" main for the boat. It is a bit smaller, but the shape is more closely optimized to the spitfire wingshape.... decisions decisions....
