Precision / WANTED 130-135 genoa for Preci...

Last post by eaglecreeksailor22 - Mar 01, 2026, 08:43 AM

Hello all,

My current genoa is very heavy material. I believe it is heavier than my Rolly Tasker main. I would like to buy a light to medium 130-135 genoa set up for Flexible Furler 1. Mylar would be great depending on price.
Luff maximum is 21.5 ft. foot 10ft.

Mid summer here in Central Indiana the wind gets pretty light. Seems like my current heavy genoa do not respond well.

Have serviced the Mercury, repaired some nicks in the rudder and painted it. Will be launching early if this weather holds up. 60* predicted later this week.

Thanks in advance to all who respond,

Stay safe,
Rich

Dale, Thank you for your kind words.
As much as I'd like to bask in all the glory and recognition, the plain truth is, I shamelessly STOLE the  ideas off the Scamp Sailboat Builders, Sailors and Dreamers, facebook page!!     
I'm indeed fortunate, that those guys all got their boats done, before I did!!

Well except for a few divers and fishermen ..they pose no danger . Just think of the fishing story being told where you caught a fish and as you were reeling it in , it exploded !

West Wight Potter Yachts / St. Pats Sail, Potter Yachters

Last post by marksabinSunCat - Feb 27, 2026, 06:57 PM

Dear Potter Yachters;
Depart Westpoint Sat Mar 14th, arrive CPYC later. Dinner and special dancing. Return Sunday. Currents ok. See news letter. I'll need your Docs/boat specs for Coyote, as they require one person per group to furnish data + make reservation. My contact is in news letter. This group sail only open to Potter Yachter members. I'll spend 13th on boat in a slip. Posted here kinda late. So. I am half fool.
