Hi Gang,
I started working with Bill Hansen here in the SF Bay Area for a new sail. I liked the pictures of the Wing Mast F25 sail he worked on and asked him to create a Round Mast version.
The attached has the sail plan for both the round and wing mast. The design uses the Sailman batten system.
Cheers,
Matt

Re: Chop Top Sails for Round Mast F25
Keep us posted on your sailing experiences with this! When I bought our boat in 2007 I was very interested in getting a sail like this, but did not pursue it. My experience since has been that I need at least 4 crew to keep her flat in 15+, or else I have to reef. And this is with much less area up high.
