[C320-list] PHRF Racing Sails etc

[bruceheyman at cox.net]

Rick,
Our Sailmaker modified the pockets so that we can go with either full or partial battens.  So far our favorite configuration is full for the top two and partial for the bottom two.
Best,
Bruce

Thanks Bruce I was really curios on whether the dutchman would work loose footed. 

I'm glad it will.

Rick,
We have a loose footed main and use the dutchman system with no problems.  We like the loose footed main as it seems easier to trim the lower third of the sail.

I just started PHRF racing my c320 in Western Long Island sound. I was
wondering if anyone can give me some advise on cruising/racing sails they
may have upgraded to?

I got some quotes from doyle but I am unsure what to go with.  My main
questions have to do with the main

1. Loose footed or not?
2. Full battens or not?

I love and want to keep the dutchman and want to know if anyone has used it
on a loose footed main
