Necromancing this 3 year old thread...
I'm adding a bowsprit to Ananda. Likely the Seldèn retractable version, 75mm diameter. This will be supporting a running asymmetrical spinnaker that I plan on using instead of a symmetric (too much work for me, haha!).
The asym size is still being discussed. My sailmaker wants to make it 880 sq feet, but I think that's a little large. It'll be deployed and doused with an ATN sock operated from the cockpit.
What do you guys think? Should I go for it? Smaller sail? Larger?
