Dix 43 sails: questions
How much is a new mainsail for a Dix 43?
From A$5,823.40 in Dimension-Polyant Optimum Cruise with 3 leech battens and a full-length head batten, or A$6,089.60 with 4 full battens. C-Breeze, the long-life cloth, starts at A$7,683.50. Every mainsail is cut to the Dix 43 rig (P 15.80 m, E 6.00 m) with two reefs.
What size genoa does a Dix 43 need?
We build 110% to 150% LP for the standard rig (I 17.79 m, J 4.88 m). Pick a smaller genoa for a windy home port and a larger one for light-air sailing. Furling genoas start at A$4,676.10.
What size spinnaker fits a Dix 43?
A Size 9 (106 m²) asymmetric suits the Dix 43 fore-triangle. It starts at A$3,036, or A$4,016.10 with a dousing sock.
What size storm jib and trysail fit a Dix 43?
The Offshore Special Regulations cap a storm jib at 5% of I squared (15.8 m² here) and a trysail at 17.5% of P × E (16.6 m²). That makes our Maxi (12 m²) storm jib and Maxi (15.5 m²) trysail the right sizes.
How do I check my boat matches these measurements?
Measure I, J, P and E and compare them with the rig table. We confirm every measurement with you before the sail is cut.
