Re: [bolger] Junk Rigged Seabird

How did this junk rig on Seabird 86 perform relative to the dipping lug?
It appears that the center of the junk sail is a couple feet
aft of the center of the dipping lug, true? Did this work?
Why was the junk rig modidication done?

Hello,
My boat a bolger, seabird´86 (a 7m sailer) is in Lemmer/Ijsselmmeer.
I've build my junkrig this year and it works very good.
Maybe it will be a help for you to see the boat. I think we can make a
date at Lemmer. Some pictures of the
boat are at:
