What year is yours?
Makes sense though. Wonder what happened to the original lapper from mine?
If anyone has a decent used 109%-ish M17 jib (pre-2000 forestay location) they'd like to sell - let me know...
cheers, John S.

Thanks, that means my 80%-ish Reggie Armstrong jib is probably the
original "high wind" jib.
I didn't get a 109% with the boat, just the 80% and the 150% genoa. I mostly single-hand, or have passengers that are not really "crew" (they ain't gonna change a headsail under way), so something like the 109 working jib would be nice to have.
Mine came with McKibben sails that are definitely original. There’s a lapper (reefable) that’s probably about 109, a genoa that (if memory serves) says 155 on the bag, and a storm jib that has obviously never been used and is about the size of a pocket handkerchief.
