Dik, You probably don't want a "storm" jib. A storm jib, I've learned, is just a snip of a sail made of very heavy material that will enable you to maintain steerage in a gale. I too went searching for a smaller jib to reduce the power in high winds. Check out C & C Sailmakers of Houston, TX. Talk with Ed Christie at info@ccsailmakers.com Very helpful and they have the boat measurements and sail plans for the Montgomerys. He just made an 80/80 for my M-15 - $221.25 included shipping. (80% of the I dimension on the luff ( tack ot head ) and 80% of J dimension on the LP ( clew to luff ) I'm delighted with it ( and didn't have to sew it myself!!} Stan Winarski M-15, #177 Carol II
