I've been sailing with gennaker and spinnaker for many and I wouldn't be without them. It makes sailing so much more fun! My gennaker and spinnaker are each 144 sq. ft.. I fly the gennaker from a block approx two feet from the top of mast when not using the main. If you go to lakedonpedrosailingclub.org and click on photos then scroll down to 2007-08-06 Mocassin cruise, then scroll through pictures, you'll see Really sailing with spinnaker and Gennaker. In one of the photos I'm sailing at 5.5 knots in 8 knot winds with gennaker alone. Rich Cottrell M15 "Really"
