Bravo spinnicker? Does anyone know how to add a spin or a jib for more speed and sail area? I have been pushing my bravo in higher winds of up to 30 knots and want to have that speed but with less wind. |

The Bravo is not designed or intended to run a second sail. You would end up spending a lot of time, effort, and money trying to add a custom headsail that will almost certainly not add any significant boat speed, but will add a lot of complexity and potentially break your mast. It may seem blunt, but if you want to go faster, sell the Bravo and get a faster boat. There are countless other beachcat designs that already exist that are significantly faster than the Bravo in all conditions. sm |
