can anyone tell me if the supercat 20 mainsail is the same sq footage as the sc19xl tall rig sqaretop main made by posey sails and the self tacking jib?
thanks!

Hello,
I don't have the numbers in front of me right now but I think the mainsail on a SC19XL is the same size or just slightly smaller then the standard rig on the SuperCat20. The mast on both boats were 33' but the SC20 had a boom and I think the foot was slightly longer (maybe an inch or two) then that on the SC19XL. The square top does add some square footage, so that would probably make the area greater then that of a SC20 pinhead sail.
The 19XL self-tacking jib might work on a SC20 stock rig. The measurement from the front beam to the bridle wires on both boats is pretty close and since the mast is the same it should be a close fit but I would try it before make any commitments.
