After discussing with Fjord Sail, North Sails and Rob Humphreys it looks like the ASOP concept is the way to go for hull #19. Cool!
Basically, this means sailing an assymmetric spinnaker on an overlength pole so it is possible to get the spinnaker a bit further to windward and thus increasing both stability and going lower TWA.
This also means that the bowsprit will be used for cruising, and we are attempting to get sails sewn so that they can be used on either (overlength pole for regatta, sprit for cruising).
Exciting!
