A friend of mine who previously owned a Catalina 30 gave me a UK Flasher...cruising spinnaker. Can anyone tell me if the mast height of a C34 and C30 are close enough to fly the same spinnaker on both with success? I figure that I will fly it about 5-6 feet off the deck to make it work. Thoughts? If anyone has any pictures of their deck layout with a cruising spinnaker, that would be helpful as well. I have flown them on smaller boats and I assume the principles are the same.
I had a full chute from my Cat 30 recut to a cruising spinnaker. We added material in the center the sides and on the bottom. It looks like crazy quilt but it is a full cruising chute and works well.
Wo : I believe that the mast height of a C30 tall rig is with in inches of the mast height of a standard mast C34.
