There is a new sail concept on the market. In most instances you need no jib.
It's about $12 a square foot, but you need less sail because of an efficiency
250% more than conventional sail rigs. I don't know how well it would help a
Potter. I get the impression this system is of more benefit to higher
hullspeed boats. At low wind speed it would be good for any boat.
