I bought a distressed Hobie Holder 14 and found that the sails, mast, and boom were not the original but from an Australian catamaran, a Trac.
I need to cut 3' off the top of the 23' Trac mast, then resew the mainsail to fit the shorter mast. I can either take the 3' of mainsail off the bottom, or I can take it from the top and reconfigure the sail into a flat-top sail.
Which is preferable?
Or is it even feasible to remake a fully battened catamaran sail into something that will work on a monohull?
