This would be better if asked in the sailboat section. The sail guys are more likely to see and answer this in there than in a scale forum

Hey decoates,
A guy named Larry in the AC 20 forum came up with a very good working full Gennoa on one of his boats. Had a video on youtube that looked like it worked well.
Good luck,
Jim Freeman
