Hi,
a sailing mate of mine recently bought that boat (four years old) and up to now we were not able to find the right setup to make it run good and fast upwind or highly upwind. We are not sure wether the boat doesn't like two crew or we have made mistakes by putting it together like mast rake or the right forestag tension or so. Starts to be frustrating when you feel the boat working under the wind load but not moving light and quickly as the 100kg let one expect to do so.

That Javelin has the twister rigging and no jib.

Another thing is the fully open carbon mast with the small rope for the main inside. Is there a solution to seal the mast and have the rope inside?

Many thanks for your help.
