Hi Tommy
Would you be interested in selling the genoa and stay sail separately? What make and luff tape size are they and do they have uv strips?
Thank you

Hi
On our 1070, I have tried it in similar conditions to you Mario. I didn't unfurl the stay sail fully which made it easier to barber haul the clew closer in board and improve the gap between stay sail and genoa.

I do a lot of anchoring in the West Coast of Scotland and some of it solo sailing (1070 #5). By the time I walk to the bow and control the windlass the bow can be lost in the wind.
