From the class rules: "A number four jib may be carried provided that
it has an LP no larger than 7 feet 7 inches"
Note that a maximum sized #4 can be close in size to a #3 (8'0 -
8'7") and likely not the best thing for offshore or shorthanded
sailing. A more appropriate #4 for rough weather would be quite a bit
smaller and with a high clew.
The right #4 design and material does depend on your needs. Also you
want it to sheet to your existing hardware.
