It's interesting they are labelled "14 main", "int 14 jib" and "14 assy". Are they scaled down 14 sails?

What's even more interesting is the fact that the measurements aren't quite right. I think something got lost in translation. I am just drafting a mail about now. But not to worry they still look well cool! I'm sure we will sort out the slight measurement discrepancy!

So they've come out at about 10.6sqm. What size were they supposed to be?

they should be around the old 97' rules in size. The foot length on the jib is a bit short and the main has the luff length of a reefed main I had discussed doing.
