Al, the photo was taken several years ago. The sail is one of nine head sails that came with with her when I purchased the boat. They ranged up to a 160! I believe that this was the 140. It was one of the few sails that was not past its recycle date. I sail alone nearly all of the time. The winter after this photo was taken I succumbed and installed roller furling. I had a new working jib made at that time too. It is about a 128%. It has worked out very well for me.
