[quote=yelkenli1]When measuring mast rake, does the main have to be hoisted and tensioned with the down-haul? I am thinking the mast bends, but maybe not enough to care. The measurement I have seen is to use the main halyard to compare the mast top to bow with the mast top to stern. 16 inches is recommended in some places. Does anyone have other measures?
