Measured my "big" jib yesterday. Bag says it's the "cruising" genoa. Dimensions plugged into sail calculator say it's a ~150% jib. It has a fairly large window, not unusually high but fairly long, and, quite high up. Too high to be functional, seems to me. Sitting in the cockpit, the view through the window is of the tallest treetops on the shore (if there are tall trees on the shore...). And I'm pretty tall, so for anyone shorter the view would be even higher. Maybe really tall rigs would be spotted before collision...not small boats or mast-less boats though. I can't figure out why a window would be put so high. Anyone have something like this on their jib? Any ideas why the window so high? cheers, John S. -- ---------------------------------------- John Schinnerer - M.A., Whole Systems Design Member, The Sociocracy Consulting Group Governance by Design http://sociocracyconsulting.com 510-982-1334 ----------------------------------------
