What are the jib dimensions for a 1981 prindle 15 cat?

I didn't think the Prindle 15 had a jib? I think it was rigged similar to a Hobie 14.

The Prindle 15 was designed for single handed sailing
Mainsail only no jib -

There are sailors of p15s that have a jib.

They just added one
No Prindle came from the factory with a jib it was not designed to have one -

Added a P16 jib on my P15 this past summer...better performance, easier to tack and helpful in lighter winds. Highly recommend it.
