New Sail Advice For The Drascombe Lugger

It's time for new sails. Lulu, my Drascombe Lugger, has already had to have a new Jib, with the old one ripping 2 seasons ago, but with the mainsail flapping badly now, it's just time to get that and the Mizzen sail replaced now too.

This video goes through all the thought process and measuring up to ensure I not only get the right sails for the Drascombe Lugger MK2, but also that I get the right sail shape and size for my needs.

We then have a look at the new Spinnaker. Its a lot bigger and fits the Drascombe Lugger a lot better in terms of her "J-Value". I think we're going to have a lot iof fun flying this sail!!

Hope tbhis helps
