It does this for a JY 15 however these can both easily be applied to the JY 14 The material is called SeaDeck and I think it is one of the best additions to make to the boat I love it Lastly there is a photo showing the bow of the boat on the trailer with a big PVC pipe attached to the trailer

- Hunter 140 purchase advice - Sailboat Owners Forums
I currently have a JY-14 (earlier version of the Hunter 140) and can attest that a majority of the cracking that I have noticed occurs at the mast step My boat spent a lot of time in the Northeast, so it was subject to significant temperature changes throughout the year

- What does #1 jib, #2 jib, etc. mean. . . - Sailboat Owners Forums
size matters The sail area varies from boat to boat but is a 100% jib just passes before the mast on a tack, then a #1 headsail would be about 150% area, #2 is about 135%, #3 is 100 to 110% of jib, #4 is about 80% and #5 is small, 35% or so As the sail gets smaller, the stitching and canvas gets tougher to handle more wind
