Does anyone know if anyone makes a larger jib for the getaway? I sail in light winds a lot and a jib 20 or 30% larger would help performance in light air. Maybe would upset the balance of the rig too much?

Pearhaps consider a spinnaker? there are threads on the subject here. A larger jib would require different cleating positions.
