    Hello I recently change my verry verry old main sail for a brand new one. The size was calculate by he sailmaker on th boat, he did’nt care about the size of the old one. As he explained canvas have changed, shapes are determined by computer etc… I payed for this main sail (+/- 14m²) 850€. I can tell you that my boat win more than 1.5Kn at the sames directions than before.

    The real question is what are the conditions (winter/summer) of the most time you are sailing. A fine sailmaker is abble to optimize the exact genoa for your boat and for the ay you use it. In my mind the % is not the good question, don’t you? ASFAR Pont-Aven France
