Ben,

In the really testing conditions I don't even touch the outhaul or downhaul from what I had set going upwind. I'd rather get around the course upright than pitch poleing. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Apart from that I'm too bloody busy just concentrating on staying on course, watching for bullets, watching the bows and avoiding other yachts. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Regards,

Peter
