Hi.

Was wondering if anyone has the luff and foot length for the Hobie FX1 mainsail.

Seems like it is some national secret.

All Hobie will say is to buy their sail and it will fit. The problem is I want to see if it will fit on a different boat.

Thanks!

You can find the data from the Texel Ratings here, (H FX1 is line 131). Click on COMPLETE LIST WITH DETAILS & download the spreadsheet...it is large! There is a link below it with all the intel, the abbreviations are originally from Dutch, & so might not seem obvious to us.
The dimensions are in meters, you will have to convert to inches.

You will need to look here to decipher the headings on the spreadsheet.

Awesome!

Just curious....

Wouldn't the FX1 be on line 27 versus 131?

Thanks!
