Sailing Robbe Smaragd

Hé Duncan
A blister is an fwd extendable Genoa Jib.
Not as far as an spinnaker but in the middle.
(At least that’s how I understand it … )
I bet there are people who really know the correct terms !

Sailing Robbe Smaragd

Hi all
I have a complete working smaragd sailing boat Robbe with blister.
I have sailed her with main and jib and sometimes Genoa.
I purchased the blister and made some adjustments to the lines to extend her fwd.
I have not tried it on the water though.
I have searched for YouTube clips but did not found one with blister in action.
Anybody have experience with it ?
