Question for the H33 owners out there. What size gennaker are you using. I tried my new gennaker from North Sails yesterday and it seemed very undersized. It has a 36' luff. When raised it is about 7 feet from halyard exit from mast. When I spoke with north sails today, they said they often recommend a conservative size but their database of prior H33 customers have gone as big as 42'. They will exchange my current sail, so no worries there.

Hunter H33 Port Credit Harbour, ON.
Here is the information for my North Sail Asym.

G-AP2 Norlon 75 Gennaker, 668 square feet.

Unfortunately I do not have the actual dimensions. I can look in the boat next time I am down but I know that I had a discussion with North because they did not have the newer Hunter 33 information in their database. The Gennaker is the wider based G-AP2. The top of the snuffer goes all the way up to the hayard restraint and the tack is about 1 foot above the tack block when pulled tight. (as far as I can remember)
