I'm thinking of buying a used kite for my boat. Does anyone have a symmetrical or asymmetrical for their Dolphin and can give me dimensions? Luff length is the key dimension, but foot length or girth would help.

Thanks!!

Hi Erik
Marionette has a 'running spinnaker', max'ed for running as compared to reaching. It is 30.27' on the luff, 16.17' on the max girth. It is .5/.6 oz polyester. We do not use it in breezes higher than about 10-12 kts apparant (16-18 true. At this breeze strength we are at hull speed +.
