Description

The Staysail Manual Book by James Lowell Grant

This book will teach you how to build a staysail. The staysails discussed here are special purpose sails used on modern sloops to increase performance in light and medium air while reaching or running. They are set flying on the foredeck between the main and a headsail (a jib or spinnaker). Examples of such sails include genoa staysails, 150% staysails, tallboys, spinnaker staysails and cheaters (among other names in use). The Staysail Manual will help you design just the sail you need for that one point where your boat is most sluggish.

This book is included in The Sailmaker’s Library.

My trusty sewing machine broke and I’ve been debating on how to replace it for months now. To my delight, I got a brand new sailrite #UltrafeedLSZ for the holidays! Move over because I can’t WAIT to sew through layers of heavy duty materials with ease. Shoutout to lindshandmade for featuring sailrite because it truly helped me feel confident in the purchase. #Sewing #Handmade #Sailrite

Go anywhere with the Ultrafeed. Pair it with the Monster 2 balance wheel and you’re sewing without electricity 😳. Check it out in our link in bio, or on our website. #sailrite #ultrafeed #dıy #offgrid #myog
