I have the same problem, going into irons without warning. I've loosened my shrouds a good bit and the mast seems to rotate more freely. The result seems to be that tacking is nearly effortless and the "irons" problem has ironed itself out somewhat! smile

I'm off to Kelly Park in two weeks; we'll see how astute my observations have been!
