Headsail dimensions

LP (luff perpendicular) is measured from the clew to the luff, perpendicular to the luff. It's given as a percentage of the J measurement (2.8m). It can also be used to estimate headsail size for given wind strengths.

Genoa size LP (m) Notes
110% 3.03m Tighter sheeting, better upwind performance. Suits windier conditions.
120% 3.3m Versatile all-rounder. Most popular choice for coastal cruising.
