I found that Bacon and Associates had a huge amount of used sails. You can select Catalina 25 from a menu and get a list of head sails for your boat with the approximate % listed with it. There were a lot of J24 sails that popped up. I called Bacon for some info. and they were EXTREMELY helpfull. I would however cross reference the measurements with the 110% you have now just to be sure on the size.

Hope this helps

There are plenty of great used sail lofts right downtown St. Pete. Look in "Sailwinds" magazine that is free. Or, just check the yellow pages. No reason to go any furthur than right here. I sold some great sails to one of them about a year ago. I can't remember the name off hand, but they are on either Central or 1st Ave. South. They also sell some of the small Catalina boats.

Just as an FYI - We use a J24 #1(150) as a number two headsail on our boat. It works out to be about a 135 +/- a few. We have not had any problems with it as of yet.

I do the same and love it, mine uses snaps rather than hanks, works great.
