We made the sail number larger than normal as I was afraid it would be
lonely and lost normal size. It still looks small.

Mariposa has a four digit sail number, which is rare enough to draw comment in our fleet. A one digit sail number is super cool.

My main competitor in our fleet is #71. His was the last one built so
everyone else has a lower number. I was basically following his lead in
just putting the hull number on the sail. I could have put L-36 and 5 but
was told that is only done on the main.

My other boat is hull no. 13, leading her original owners to name her
"Baker's Dozen." The second owner kept it and so did we, for two
reasons: (1) lack of imagination, and (2) the name was affixed by
glued-on plastic letters on the transom. Although I general don't favor
novelty names for my boats, we've owned her as "Baker's Dozen" for 45
years now and I've become attached to the name.
Cal 20 #1220 has a good substantial 4-digit number signifying a huge
marketing success (and a wholly deserved one).

Wilkie,
My 29 also has a 4 digit sail #, actually quite common here in the Midwest. Used to be that the racing org issued those; mine starts with a 5, indicating it was a Detroit number. Chicago numbers began with 6. As an RC member trying to record finishes I love the low numbers! I believe T-10s use their hull # as a sail # also.

Great timing....just about to become race registered....PHRF-NW over here on the west coast...are they issuing numbers for the sails or do I consider my HIN?
