What matters is what is on your certificate if your sails do not fit within those measurements then you need a partial remeasurement to bring your new/old sails into legallity, suggest you consult one of the measurers in the year book, bound to be one in your area you should not need a full measurer, good luck.

standard measurement is a 5720 luff and a 2503ish foot. There are variations, but this is almost certainly what you're P&B will be

As a restricted development class does the MR have a standard set of measurements? A universally adopted set (from current experience with current boats) maybe demonstrating a risk averse time maybe?

or perhaps that there is a definate sweet point regarding rig height and sail area?
