Rodger, you are absolutely right about a well trimmed boat.
Problem in my case is that due to wear and tear my rudder system didn't function 100% anymore. So I had to adjust the rake of my blades a bit more forward, in order to create more grip in the automatic release system.
Because of that, I now have a little weather helm (which is told to be good for sailing yachts). Nevertheless, like you, I prefer the 2finger touch. (Also for my underarms !)
By the way I would have to re-new my stays in order to move the sail a bit more forward for that same reason.
Windsurf boomgrip is, as far as I know, not known here in Holland; I use X6 Neillpride booms which have a fixed gripcover.
And deckgrip (EVO foam?) seems at first sight a bit too thick and do I only know in plate format.
