Hunter 33 Essex
Looking to expand our sails by addicting a spinnaker to our Hunter 33. Can anyone advise if this if flown from the masthead or from the top of the headsail.
Also can anyone advise the size of spinnaker required. My preferred option is a 2nd hand spinnaker first to see if we get any use before getting a new one.

Thanks

Assuming you have a fractional B&R rig, the spinnaker flies from above the jib, not the masthead.

A guy in my marina has a 2005 or so H33 and he added a spinnaker last season.

Here is the sizing for my genneker. 2006 H33. It is relatively short and fat due to the small fore triangle.

The Annapolis Doyle Sailmakers came out and measured my boat, made the "APC-DuraSail Spinnaker", we took it for a test spin in 16 knots of wind.
My sail, as is, is 42 x 37 x 19'8". 661 sq feet. .75 nylon. w/ bag and luff line, dousing sock, and (maybe ) the sheets?
My boat is I 42.67 , J 11.06 , P 38.91 , E 13.17 . Beneteau 323 @ 32' 10" .
