      Did Norris get back with his mizzen staysail dimensions?
      Would you please share those dimensions?
      Thanks

      Sorry, but I was not able to lay out the mizzen s’sail and measure her.
       
      Rigging. Use a block secured to the end of the mizzen boom to reave the sheet through. The tack is secrued to a padeye on the coach roof to one side or the other of the main boom and the peak to a halyard reaved thtough a block at the mizzen mast peak. The luff of my sail is a wire so a separate stay and hanks are not needed. It is a light wind sail, and I would not use in more that 10 knots of wind if that much.
       
      We once ghosted much of the length of Lake Erie with the spinnaker and s’sail in light airs. A pleasant, almost dreamlike cruise.
