By Mitch Longtin #538 (1ea 2ar)
I've recently had a request from someone building their duck curious about my mast and sail setup, so I thought I could let you know my dimensions.
Foot: 108"
Luff: 57.5"
Head: 96"
Leech: 137"
Diagonal, clew to throat: 113"
Square footage (exact): 58.47sqf
Mast placement: 18" from bow
Center of effort, sail: 44" from bow
Leeboard, centerline placement: 38"
This is a photo from sailing that shows my mast partner and downhaul cleat setup.
