Hi Barry -and Fluffy -
Sounds great on the sail area if they change to the extra 15 sq ft in the main by adding the larger sq top -
B-Do you advocate adopting the i-F-20 rules then ,
the only major problem being the weight difference -
418 LB in the iF 20 RULES ,-but Inter 20s here weighing 390 -or 28 LB less.
Others are minor -
Can try to add to the spin and capsize experiences -- -experienced the same thing rounding up with the spin -
Think when the wind is up the spin is being sailed at lower angles due to apparent wind sometimes in more of a stall mode as you round up your "heating it up " more force ,-more speed at higher angles , Its generally safer to maintain your course towards the mark and drop the shute in high winds,-
Stay out on the wire yourself throughout,-once the spin is down THEN -travel out , let out some main , then round up and get the crew back on the wire also to help keep that closer course and wind angle from flipping the boat .
hope that helps
How is the i-F 20 racing in the U K this season ?
