J/30 Class Association Forums J/30 Forum The Boat, Sails and Equipment Class legal mainsail

As one who sails here, I don't think MA's approach is fair or equitable. It promotes rule-breaking. The class could expand the rules to allow lighter chutes and #1's, relieving PHRF of the arbitrary, punitive penalties (i.e., not designed to promote a fair game), and use SI's to control inventory in OD events.
