Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the getaway jib? I did a search and couldn't find it. I would like to get a custom Genny made and put a bock just inside the cooler lid for it.

I don't know the dimensions off hand, but could almost be you, if you're looking do put a different jib on it, a H18 jib will work perfectly for where you are going to mount the block. I converted my mast to a H18 (28'1") and put a H18 sail on it, tried the jib, but the foot was too long, went back to the getaway jib (which was more than enough by the way, especially withe huge sail increase), but that's exactly where I would have had to mount the block if I was going to use it. So instead of getting a new one made, think about a H18 jib..... just a thought.

I put the sheet block on the shroud adjuster. The cooler lid isn't strong enough. Look to the very right of this photo.

What kind of block did you use?

Jeremy does nice custom work . He also has his own sails now I'm using them for my F-18 racing sails. We have also changed the whole spin system for the tiger.
