When I purchased my 28.5, it came 3 jibs, a 150% on the installed roller, a 110% hank on and a third hank on that I was lead to believe was working jib.
To start with the 150% on the roller and I could not come to mutual understanding. It came off and is now relegated to the basement. After sailing on the 110%, I think it is the smartest decision I've made yet about this boat.
Today I decided to go with the mystery bag marked "G". After hanking it on the foot stretched aft about half way to the mast, raised it was about half to two-thirds up the forestay. That seems a bit small for working jib. Is it a storm jib?
I'm not going to complain about performance though. For most of the day I making 4-5 knots.
