[quote=P.M.][quote=catmodding]Hi ,
One of the guys in the marina has a hardly ever used Nacra 580 main for sale. The 580 is
no longer with him.
It's a nice square-head main and I was wondering if its possible to use it on the P 18-2 ,
after a modification by a sailmaker.
Before taking it in considderation I'd like to know the luff lenght of the 580 main.
The seller won't allow me to take it outside to make a measurement , because it's winter ,
snow and showers overhere. He's probably right. And yes, were short on indoor-space at
our little marina.
So, anyone ??
Thanks, Andre[/quote]
Andre,
You might want to consider that the 580 mainsail is a boomless design. The clew as well as the cut is different than boom rigs. The luff length is much longer than the Prindle (both in mast length and because it is boomless) and the cringle would have to be moved. I would run it by the sailmaker and talk with him first.[/quote]
