Hi, I'm a relatively new sailor sailing on the bald, but windy, butt prairies. There aren't a lot of us (sailors) around here, so I hope some here can give me some advice. I have a C-18 with the standard rig. - 150 sq.ft. sail area with the 100% jib. There are days when I'm sailing and its not that windy and the boat could use more power. Is it worth putting a bigger jib on this boat? (I put roller furling on the boat last year.) Also, has anyone used a spinnaker on this or similar sized boat? Thanks, Doug

The 135 jib is nice...

Much better for those calmer days, and when the wind starts to pick up, these boats sail great with a reefed main and the 135 jib pulling - much better than trying to roll in some jib.
