"Michael,
From experience over three keel boats a fully battened main is almost a requirement.
Not only will it make dropping the sail into the boom bag far easier it certainly reduces any flogging and vastly lengthens the life of the sail. While…"
Rear anchorage
Hello,
Look at this swedish and norwegian B43s with a few add ons :
Rear anchorage and reel with a long strap.
Also adjustable backstays.
Does anyone else have experience of this ? I will try to contact them and get them to join seaknots.

Hello Franc and Andrea,
I was having the same doubts, this rear anchor might be for rivers with not to much strain on the rode.
By the way do you have contact with a good Beneteau dealer in Barcelona ? I am still looking forward to buy ALPI panels from Beneteau to do the generator installation between the two aft cabins. For the moment the only adress with perfect service is from Fox's in England but the shipping is quite expensive.
I should be back in Roses in February.
