I got a new jib topsail last summer due to an ordering mixup. The sail it replaced is still in good racing condition.
I'm offering my 2011 UK Technora JT for sale at a deep discount. If you ever race on a course with reaching legs, this sail is a superior "weapon" to have in your arsenal.
Please send me a private email if interested.
Thanks,
Todd

To answer a few common questions...
The sail luff length is designed for use on the furler. It will work just fine without a furler, too.
It is in good racing condition. No delamination. I would not have replaced it for several years if the new one hadn't fallen into my lap.
The sweet spot for this sail is TWA 65-120 and TWS 8-20kts. Of course you won't be able to carry it to 65 in 20 kts or 120 in 8kts, but it will give you far more forward power than a regular Genoa when reaching.
It also makes a great spinnaker staysail in certain conditions.
Here's a video of the sail in breezy conditions. (Cold, wet and nasty, too!).
