Set up the 5.8 for light wind yesterday. The jib leads were forward in the slide, when I looked at the video the foot was pretty loose when the jib was on hard up wind even though the telltales were flying okay. It got to about 13 knotts, 2 on the wire rarely flew the hull more than 4ft.
Is it more important to have the foot pulled tighter for shape or more important to have the high volume of air pushed through?
I've attached the only photo taken just after the start the jib wasn't fully on but was close. Were the ones at the back.
regards
