stingray580 Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 hi everyone, im looking for a spinnaker to suit my stingray cat. 5.5 m hull length with a 9 metre mast. anything from taipan 4.9 upwards would be great. not worried about condition too much. cheers guys BP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knobblyoldjimbo Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 do you have VS skiffs down there. I have one of their assy's for my Careel 18 (don't laugh) and it suits perfectly, mast is 7m plus 1m off the deck so could suit. My second hand one was $200 I think but it is in perfect condition.

TornadoSport260 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 A VS kite would be to deep for a Stingray. You need a flater reaching style kite, rather than the deep running style skiff kites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingray580 Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 thsnks knobblyoldjimbo and tornadosport260, i agree that mono kites are too deep, i have a couple of old 14 skiff kites in my shed and one of those is the samller flatter reacher from the #2 rig and still way too deep. hopefully my best new pal Niso will come thru!!!!!

dazedandconfused Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Hi Brian, are you still looking for a spinnaker? I have a white F18 kite which as I sail a Taipan 5.7 never use. cheers Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingray580 Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 hi jim yes i have one now thanks, but i know others who are looking. how much do you want for it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazedandconfused Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Brian, apols, I've had a bit of a rethink. I've never actually used the kite. Went to the Yacht Club yesterday and had a close look. Its a pretty ordinary sail, nearly 10 years old and looks every bit of it. Porbably more suitable as a boat cover. I've decided not to inflict it on anyone else. cheers jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
