Need a zippered, furable jib with above luff length for a SC 17 and I don’t care about losing sail area. I’m thinking Hobie18, etc.

there are several h18's and they don't all have the same jib
https://www.sailrite.com/Hobie-18-Sail-Data - this claims the h18 to have a 17' luff
Luff 17ft
Foot 8.33ft
Leech 16.25ft
aquarius specs: (http://owners.aquarius-sail.com/phpbb3/viewtopic.php?t=292)
a) Luff 15 feet, 7 inches
b) Foot 7 feet, 10 inches
c) Leech 15 feet, 4 inches
why don't you treat yourself to a new jib? - they aren't that expensive
