Bravo spinnicker? Does anyone know how to add a spin or a jib for more speed and sail area? I have been pushing my bravo in higher winds of up to 30 knots and want to have that speed but with less wind.

The Bravo is not designed or intended to run a second sail. You would end up spending a lot of time, effort, and money trying to add a custom headsail that will almost certainly not add any significant boat speed, but will add a lot of complexity and potentially break your mast.

It may seem blunt, but if you want to go faster, sell the Bravo and get a faster boat. There are countless other beachcat designs that already exist that are significantly faster than the Bravo in all conditions.
