;D Your lucky day, I happen to have them stored in my basement so a quick measurement reveals 1 x 35 1/2"2 x 41 1/2"1 x 48 3/8"These may not be official measurements but they're pretty good.I once lost my jib and main sheets (don't ask how).Good luck,gary

H216 Battens

Look in the archives for the subject of losing battens on an H216. This has been a chronic problem with lots of discussion. I lost a couple sets before I got smart, drilled holes in the ends of the battens, then sewed them in with dental floss.
