[quote=shortyfox]There's been a lot of opinions on this one, only his time I have a question instead. I recently downsized from a G-cat 5.7 to a 5.0. It was a good move because I sail alone most of the time, only 150 lbs and 70 years old. The 5.0 has a boom and a mast rotation limiter. I do use mast bend to help flatten the sail. I would be inclined to use a lot more mast bend but the 5.0 lacks diamond wires. Is there any danger in breaking the mast if I let it rotate almost 90 degrees and sheet down really hard?[/quote]
