Cheryl & Don, As unusual as this is, I have to agree with Ed. Over the years there has been a lot of discussion/controversy of standard main vs IMF as well as the various genoa sizes to use. It all comes down to where you are going to sail and what kind of sailors you really are or want to be. Personally, I'm an alcoholic that sails because I can sail and drink and not get picked up for DUI. Therefore, I'm a lazy sailor and appreciate the advantages of the IMF. Is there a difference in performance? I don't care. It just doesn't matter to me. We have a substantial fleet of R22's on Lake Hartwell. If you would like to go out for a sail, we're just a couple hours drive south and the weather is great. Give me a little advance warning and I'd be glad to take you out for a sail anytime. The price, as stated, is a bottle of Mt.Gay rum. Rummy....the big bottle one of course.See the original archive post
