Solent Stay

[Joel H.]

I probably should describe my current sail plan. This is how things are set up since I bought the boat three years ago.
I have a heavy duty mainsail, the only headsail that is setup for the furler unit is a sweet tri-radial laminate 150% (so of course, my thinking is that, I would like to keep that in the arsenal).
Then in the "loft", so to speak, I have a like new Gennaker, a decent hank-on 110%, and a similarly decent hank-on 130%.
So, if the Solent Stay isn't really the best to use for close to the wind work with the 110%, I guess it would only be a help downwind with the 130% and the 150% wing to wing?
