    Thank you everyone for your recommendations regarding lofts ... now to
    get prices..

    Has anyone created or is there a polar diagram available for the Whitby
    42 in either a std or double headsail configuration? We are having
    problems understanding the relative performance benefits of different
    sail combinations on our double headsail ketch.

    Does anyone have any recommendations on order of reducing sail area
    assuming that the main, mizzen and both headsails are set for a close reach?
