For us "bigger" boys I'm starting to think mast rake has something to do also with the heading ability of the F16's, it seems the lighter the jocky the further the mast can go back, the higher the heading.

Umm comments from any wise sage out there on this ?


Umm...

I've set my boat up so that I have enough mast rake so I have a "bit" of weather helm when sailing up wind. I THink I have more rake than most, but it's difficult to tell, perhaps we should check next time we are all in the same place? On that note, anyone coming to the East coast Piers Race?
