I just got the attached photos from a spectator at a recent event and it got me thinking about where I put my weight in different situations.

Going upwind, I've noticed Paul gets pretty far forward and the transoms are out of the water. I tend to be farther back, but in this photo I'm probably more forward than I though and it looks like the bows are digging in a bit too much. An A-cat sailor told me I had my weight too far forward and was pushing too much water.

What do you guys think.
