You'd be surprised how powered up the 8.8 sqm rig is. If you are 55kg or maybe a little less in the UK, you'd feel that way to. When my son was 45kg and sailing Oppies / Mirror he sailed my Farr a few times and this would have been a good addition if he'd gone further with it. If you are suggesting the NZ has lots more wind. I'm afraid it's no as different as you think, unless you head South. The yearly average wind speed at Auckland Airport is 10knts, at Southampton Airport it is 8knts. Right now its 5knts in Auckland and 9knts at Southampton.

Never liked the look of smaller sails that don't go to the top of the mast. Ok for a little used storm sail or a reef, but if specially designed, it looks like an afterthought.
