Depends upon whether you want a full chute or a cruising chute.If your cruising crew is more than 3 adults go for a regular chute if you want to work. No work, crusing chute with a sock or snuffer. I think the foot dimension of a cruising chute should be about 150% of the J measurement, with the luff at least equal to P. Easily handled by two people. If you go to a true Asymetrical ask your sailmaker. Generally, an Asym. will require three to handle if you use a pole. They are bigger than a "cruising chute". Lots of luck.
