12:1 mainsheet on the Carbon 20? Really? Sir Ben needs to hit the gym?
heck, we're running 10:1 on the F18s. That thing has considerably more main sail area and is probably a lot more sensitive to high angle apparent winds. I would say 12:1 is probably about right.
12:1 on that main! Yes more please. I too used to think 10:1 was ridiculous for an F18 then I figured out how to trim it properly, 10:1 is delightful.
