Bavaria 49 / 50 Cruiser measurement
« on: November 19 2023, 10:45 »
If there is anyone out there with a J&J 49 or 50 (2001 - 2008) with Furlex 400s furling, could you do me a favour and take a measurement from the headsail foil please?

I need the distance between the snapshackle on the drum (bottom tack fixing) up to the luff rope feeder.

I'm having a new genoa made and am nowhere near the boat to be able to measure it.

Thanks in advance.

Your sailmaker should have all the dimensions needed.
I had a new Genoa made in uk and shipped to Greece- no problems.

If they did, I wouldn't be asking.
