Reply to: p16 how much mast rake?

[quote=coastrat]no matter where your mast rake is, the key is adjusting the rudder rake for slight weather helm. my mast is raked 18" and the rudders are foreward pretty good with a little weather helm. this hurts my downwind speed but allows me to point good and handle strong winds going to weather. the rudders tend to lock better raked foreward i have noticed. this setting lets me hang with the nacra 5.2 esp. in good winds. i wouldn't recommend it though until you play around with different settings...i'm not winning any races, hell, i only come close when a storm hits and flips all the boats with skinny people! being 235lbs, i can be a little more agressive on windy days so thats how i tuned the boat.[/quote]
