Cruising Spinnaker

[Ron Baer]

This is for 240 owners with a geniker, cruising spinnaker, whatever.Do you like it ?Can you raise, lower, sail with it single handed ?Where is the best place to look for the lowest price ?Do you have the dimensions ? Maybe I could look for a used one.

cruising chute

I bought one a few years ago from cruising direct. Probably used it 12-15 times. I dont use it alot for day sailing. More for long trips when I'm going to be on the same tack for a long time. I dont have a chute scoop but am able to lauch and retrieve by myself. Takes a little practice. Purchased it from cruising direct.

flasher

I bought a "Flasher" gennaker from UK sailmakers a couple years ago. You can custom design your colors. I love it. Fly it only in light air and usually with crew but I have flown it single handed. A sock (stasher, chute scoop) will help greatly with flying it single handed. Here's the link from the loft's website.
