hi all,
quick Q
what are recommended weights for the top 3 battens of a hobie14 sailed in light to average winds?
explan. i have a 14' weta trimaran and the top 2 of 5 battens seem too stiff so i'm trying to find out what other similar sized multis run at the top of their sails
the battens are simple rectangular section f/glass strips so it looks easier to swap them out than try and shape them

Hobie cats all use the same batten profile. Some are tapered more for use up top. None are designated by
weight
, so not sure how we can help.
