[Rhodes22-list] 130 Genoa vs the 175

[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Scott, I vote for the 130 as well. Much better visibility, use all of the sail more often, and I find it much easier to tack(I still consider myself a newbie). 

One thing to consider is that the 130 doesn't have sacrificial sunbrella to protect from UV. 

Cheers,
Ted

I am primarily lake sailing with 6-13 knot winds the majority of the time in our newly acquired "recycled" 2011 22".  I have three girls that love to lay up on the bow and enjoy the sun.  Please let the comments fly...  To date, i have only run the !75... the girls have a hard time laying under it.  Stan is sending me the 130 and i am going to have to make a decision soon.
