International Moths

Looking for basic sail dimensions of a nice competitive moth rig to input into a VPP.
The main sail makers apparently don't have the time to disclose the information.

Anyone any suggestions short of turning up at someones door with a tape measure?

Cheers

Dale

PM bgulari here or on Sailing Anarchy. He can either supply what you need or put you in touch with the right folks. Bora's the current Moth world champion, and a very nice and helpful guy.

Gulari is your best source after Andrew McDougal(KA sails) or Bill Hansen(Hansen aerosports). In the meantime this may help:

Go to your "User CP" in the menu bar, then select "Send new message" from the left hand column. Put "bgulari" (or whomever) in the "To:" field and enter your message in the appropriate text box.

Bora's is on the road right now in Florida, although he does appear on the 'net. He's probably either skippering for a keelboat regatta or practicing on his Moth (or both), so don't expect an immediate response. I'm sure he will help if you ask.
