A while ago I suggested a database of dinghy sail measurements to help those of us sailing old boats to find functional used replacements from more common classes.

There aren't many on there yet but I will measure my N12 sails and add them next week. If anybody wants to contribute just post luff and foot measurements along with the dinghy class for white sails and sym kites and luff, foot and leech for assy kites on here and I will collate them periodically.

Just in case any other Spice owners read this I currently have ISO white sails on the Spice (I also have a suit of Spice sails kept for 'best') and they are close enough to be considered identical.

Anyway the current, short, list is as follows :-

Boat	Jib Luff	Jib Foot	Jib Leech	Main Luff	Main Foot	Main Leech	Kite Luff	Kite Leech	Kite Foot
