Re:cal 39 mainsail sizes

The Cal 39-2 came with a standard and a tall rig. The standard mast "I" measurement is 50' from deck to top and the sail luff ("P") is 44'. The tall rig mast is 54' from deck to top and the sail luff is 48'. The "J" and "E" measurements are the same on both rigs. The tall rigs have single spreaders. The only Cal 39 with double spreaders were the Corinthians (only about 9 built) and they had rod rigging, too. Jim Williams Spindrift Cal 39-2 (1980) Alameda CA

Our luff is 43.8, definitely a sr. ----- Original Message ----- From: James Williams To: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 1:24 PM Subject: [Cal_Boats] Re:cal 39 mainsail sizes The Cal 39-2 came with a standard and a tall rig.
