I have just purchased a new full batten jib (white), (plus a spin). Courtesy of the Insurance people.
The Jib is very nice, battens a very discrete - hardly know they are there, except the jib does not act like a flag any longer.
Has nice shape and really seems nice in light stuff.
Will hopefully get a few more knts this weekend and will update how we perform.
I have stood my mast up a lot - I think my rake was too far back for our weight, 165kg (371lbs). reduced the pre-bend, Main has more shape all the way to the top.
Boat seemed to have more power even in light air (< 6kts)
