I have 2 used (well used) symetrical spinnakers. Both are from a J-24. They are a bit small for our boat, but are great "practice" kites so you don't rip a good one while you are learning. We used them for 3 years, the first two in a quasi asymetrical configuration running a painter off the bow and sailed them like a gennaker.
There great for messing around on light wind days.
Both have some patched areas and aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer but with care they should yield a good handful of years. Way back when these were new they went for around 1200 each. Similar sails at used online lofts have these listed at 300.
$400 for the both. Offers will be considered. You pay shipping.
Contact me by posting here or emailing me via the forum. Pictures will follow in a later post.
