Having never owned a 14, do we need a new forestay? and bridle wires? |

That's it in a nutshell - the original turbo jib has the wire in the luff, like a 16's jib (but there's no halyard on the turbo). The classic 14's bridles are longer, too. Reduces the amount of side force on the hulls. |

new bridle wires, a pigtail with swivel, and a roller furler. then youre good or you can recrimp old bridle wires. but i prefer to keep the old ones so that you can interchange back to H14 regular |
