Re: Freedom 39 Info and Owners?

Post by SimonH »

Very late to this thread but bought our 85 39PH last fall and sailing on the Chesapeake. So far we really like this boat but there is a definite learning curve compared to traditional rigs. Would love to take her to New England or down south at some point but no rush we hope.

Jenny Sue II is the former Sea Poem. The previous owners owned her for 20 plus years and spared no expense keeping her in trim so, fingers crossed, no large issues to deal with. I am curious about other sails (storm and kite?) that others seem to allude to...are those commonly used on the PH? How are they rigged?

Would love to learn from anyone who has time especially about ways to get the best out of the schooner rig.

Thanks
