Folbot sail

[Rigadog]

Hi, I'm looking for a used small sail for a tandem Folbot. Does anyone know where I might find a suitable candidate? Thanks.

I have the instructions from a 17 foot Folbot from the 1950s.
Folbots came with two setups. A 50 square foot lateen and a 50 sloop
For the lateen the mast is 96", the gaff pole is 138", the boom 114". Unfortunately the instructions don't give a measurement for the luff so you would have to trig it out.
The sloop rig has a 33 sq. ft. main and a 17 sq.ft. jib.
You could look for a used sailboard sail. A 4.5 sq.m. is about equivalent to 50 sq. ft.
I saw one of those old timey Folbots on top of a parked car at the Cincinnati Paddlefest at the end of June. I was hoping to see the owner but he must have been dawddling out on the water.
