First: I've searched and read all I could
find about this topic, on this forum. But still have a few questions.
I have a 2020 TI1) If I install the spinnaker kit, can I mostly use the setup (lines, cleats, etc.) for sailing a jib with a furler? EDIT: Or without a furler?
- I know the flexible mast on the TI is not the best for using a jib, but still. If I get any help upwind form a jib, I'll install it (always upwind here, in any direction
!)
2) What jib should I buy? Hobie Getaway jib, or Hobie 16 jib? Or?
- I don't want a jib that you furl into the main sail (it will not work well here where I live).
3) Should I consider having a fixed mast for the jib, like in aluminium or something, instead of just a furled up jib? Will it help?
4) Setup time before I go sailing. Will a spinnaker kit add much extra setup time / hassle (my boat is disassembled when I arrive to the f.ex. beach)?
5) Any tips or thoughts is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
