On most catamarans is there hardware on the forstay for adjusting the the rake? And could some other users input on the raking?
I only skimmed some of these more lenghty posts.. so please excuse me if this has been asnwered ... on my TheMightyHobie18 rake was adjusted by going DOWN 1 (or more) holes on the side stay chain plates and UP 1 (or more) holes on the forestay chainplate.
On my current boat i use a ring on my furling jib (turnbuckle) that i tie with line, so there is no chainplate. I set the side stays where i want them and tie the forestay.
