NORTH FANNED PANEL MAINSAIL The North Jet 14 Fanned Panel Mainsail is built out of Polyant 130 HTP sq. This main is full and powerful with a relatively open leech to help make it easy to depower in a breeze and reduce stalling in light winds.

NORTH SS2 ++ JET 14 JIB The North SS2++ Jet 14 Jib is built out of Polyant 130 HTP sq. It is a full and powerful in the entry but has a relatively straight open leech to help reduce stalling. It is a very easy jib to steer and because of the more open leech, an easy jib to trim. This jib is probably the best all around performer in the Class!

NORTH JET 14 SPHERICAL SPINNAKER

NEW FOR 2005! This brand new spherical spinnaker designed by our Chief Designer, Ched Proctor, is built from .5 oz. Nylon. It was tested at the 2004 Nationals which it helped to win. The North Jet 14 Spherical Spinnaker is relatively open up top to help project the upper shoulders and keep the leeches open for top broad reaching and running performance. The more open leeches also help to open the slot in between the main and the spinnaker when sailing on a tight reach. The spinnaker should prove to be one of the new standards in the Class!

	"Greg, Although we were not able to do much racing this year in our Jet, I did want you to know that in our last regatta, my wife and I won the B fleet honors!! And we beat all but one of the A fleet big boys in each of the five races, including beating Dirk Schwenk in 2 of the 5 races..... Specifically, the new spinnaker definitely out-footed many of the other boats on the downwind legs. And thanks to your help in getting the rig set up right, our upwind performance has dramatically improved. Our boat speed and pointing is up there with the best of them. A HUGE improvement from last year! Thanks for your help and your expertise". Kirby Mehrhof (Roberta) Jet 433
