[quote=erice]my 82 5.2 doesn't have the adjuster either
imho
it's heavy, expensive and just makes it easier to screw up the alignment
measure the distance between the front and back of the rudders at top and bottom, if they are the same then all is good
on boardless boats like h16 they discovered that it was actually more efficient to not have the boards perfectly parallel, so then people wanted to experiment with how much of a misalignment was best
i've been thinking of bending in some ackerman angle into my pintles, like the post 85 models, that would be more efficient, slightly lighter and FREE
but it would also mean cutting the tiler bar to get the correct alignment and as i don't race 1 design with my 29yo boat i'm not really concerned about getting the last .001% out of it
as it is the boat is already the fastest on our lake and i am probably going to have to sail it without jib and with crew just to give the 2 h16's a reason to come race <!-- editby --><em>edited by: erice, Jul 17, 2010 - 09:51 AM</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
