I read there are multiple sail options for Wave somewhere, probably here. Is a Resort Sail smaller than the regular sail? On Wave at our beach is much faster than the other. Not sure why? It appears one might be smaller, will measire next weekend.Thanks

We have a resort sail that the built like a Hobie 16 sail. Dacron and horizontal panels to keep labor low. We also have resort sails that have the vertical panels as original, but more reinforcements.

An old sail can be stretched out and become slower.

Very close. If racing... use the original sails.
