Jerry,

For launching in heavy air..............


We just head a little lower after rounding " A " mark............... be a little conservative while setting in heavy air. Then after it's up, you can power up as you please. This is when these single handed uni's are so fun. You are driving the boat, setting the main, and handling the spin sheet at the same time don't forget downhaul, mast rotation, outhaul and boards.

Oh, speaking of boards, Bruce, with all that I just mentioned my boards usually end up all the way down even if I start with them up 4" to 6". I ripped out a couple a those well cushions when I first got the boat because I couldn't move the boards. Have been re-epoxying sections in as needed. Usually ends up a bit on the loose side though which I like in case I hit bottom. It's real pain hitting bottom with the spinnaker up and know one to go forward to wrestle with the board.
