Welcome....

There is plenty of bowsprit discussion here jeanneau.proboards.com/thread/1936/gennaker-solo-on-so40

I have a Code 1 style gennaker on a roller. It works well for more upwind light weather sailing. It's a bit flat for downwind but still better than my genoa.

Their top choice was a Selden unit.
