That was a big chute, but looked entirely diffrent from the ones used in the Tybee 500. Look at the pix of Rick Bliss' boat to notice the diffrence. You can adjust luff tension with mast rake if there is no other option , but then you compromise steerage and helm. I like being able to adjust my luff tension on the F18 using a seperate tack and halyard. I couldnt do that on the I20, and I think that will make a big diffrence when I figure out how to sail this F18.
