I have an '82 with a standard rig, 110 genoa and 150 genoa. I do not have the jib jib sheets. Can anybody recommend a length for the sheets that will suit both sails? These are not on a roller-furler. Thanks.

sheet measurement

measure from the clew of the 150 when set, up around the shrouds and mast, then back down to the winch/cleat on the other side. Add 5 or 6 feet for a tail and you're good. There may be some info on the C22 website, but I'm thinking 35ft x 2 would do it.

Jib sheets Catalina 22

For a Catalina 22, each jib sheet should be about twenty-five to twenty six feet. While I am sure many would opinion longer, I've found this quite satisfactory on my Catalina 22. I actually use a single fifty foot line on a furling 135. I have used a single fifty foot line on a 110 and a 150.

I just replace mine...

My old jib sheets - for both the jib and gennie - were 45'. I replaced them both with 45' of 3/8" Sta-set line. Good sailing! Mike
