Phill,
<br>1. Thanks for the continued help. Thee are no other Uni's in St. Croix,..so I train with a I-20 and a Fox.
<br>2. I changed the mast diamond spreader configuration. It was sweptback at a bout 3+ inches at center. Set it at 1 inch.
<br>3. The range of outhaul on the I17 is 4 inches. I measured. So I adjust it to 1 inch now from 'full tight'.
<br>4. I put less rake in,..adjusted it forward" one hole" on the side stays.
<br>5. Wind was out of the SE today,..so sailed in the lee of the island,...what a joy, no waves to speak of...wind was 10 mph max,...what another joy,.....boat tacked effortlessly.
<br>Keep the info coming Phill,...I am thankful for it!
<br>
<br>regards,
<br>Bruce
