To keep cost down I used aluminum tubes on the dodger. Bought them used and fit them myself. Then a canvas guy came to the boat to make the cover. I use it in solo/double-handed races and cruising. Makes a huge difference on cold night or for some needed shade. It is off the boat most of the time.
That is my A3. AirX 750. These shots are during the Solo Mac this year and I had it up the entire first day. Great reaching sail, and must be flown from the pole. I run the sheets inside for both of my chutes and works great. It is 85% of the class chute size, flatter, and asym.
