What size jib and genoa came with the 1983 CP-19? I'm looking into getting a CDI furler and having the genny cut to fit it, but I don't even know what size the job and genny are.
You should consider sending your sails to sailcare (WWW.sailcare.com) to see if their process can repair your sails. I had my original (85) Genoa done there last year and I have a main there now. The charge was less than $100 for cleaning and some minor repairs at the tack. Shipping - you can figure about $35 total - both ways. They evaluate the sail for free. I've been very pleased with the results on my Genoa.

i had my main done last fall for my cp 16 cost 80 bucks. they can also cut your sail to fit the furler. good people
The folks at Sailcare are very familiar with the CP-19 and have all the dimensions for the sails. They can make you a sail I believe. I had my original 1982 sails reconditioned by them and was totally satisfied with the results.
