Okay. Taking inventory of my Mac 22 sails. I dont really know sails from.............but wanted to describe them. Someone wants to buy them, and I would appreciate any guidance on price

1) Mainsail that came with boat. V-22 4103. Rope guide. no battens/no reef points. some repair tape at the top in a small area.

2) Extra mainsail I got with some other items. V-22 3417. nylon guides on brass hanks. 3 battens, one reef point. In slightly better condition, no repair tape.

Both are 20' by 8'

3) Jib--Rowland--small, imagine its a storm jib. Hanks. Has a little plastic window.

4) Jib--original Mac came with boat. Full jib, I would call it. hanks. Labeled number 50487

Mac sail bag, labeled V-22, Main--Jib--3417.

And one sail, I dont know what it is. Beautiful colored, red, orange, yellow, etc. 22 1/2' high, 15' wide. Has plastic window, has "clam cleat " out at the bottom corner below the halyard side. Guess for a whisker? I wonder if this size sail (Genoa, spinnaker--I dont know) would work on my 26?

Any words of knowledge from you guys would be appreciated.

Old Guys Sail: The sail # on Venture 22's usually matched the hull number. Your hull is probably 3417 or 4103. Depending on what year your 22 is the hull number is either drilled into a stringer under the cockpit on the starboard side, or it is on the starboard stern embossed into the hull. 22's originally came with rope luff and battens??? Th jib # 50487 is a PHRF, performanance handicap racing fleet, number. The multi color sail sounds like a genoa or a geniker. The cam cleat is for shortening the luff. Whisker pole fitting is usually a grommet. Should work fine on your 26 although 22's were masthead rigged. If you're fractional the forestay might be too short. Hope this helps some. Fair Winds and full Sails...Old Salt...

Chef--you are sweet. After thinking about it I think I will put it up on the 26
