Thanks for the replies..

Now you must remember I am fairly new to this sport as this will be my third season coming up and my first on a mozzie.

I found my rudders were unpredictable as they were some 40mm in front of the pivot point and the lock down system jammed every single time I used them, hence the reason I needed to change.

I have read that adjusting the rudder rake will balance the boat (weather helm) which I understand and that also raking the mast will do the same. So, can you balance using either? What I mean is I have also read that mast rake helps pointing, is this because having a lee helm would force you off the wind rather than into it with weather helm? Is this the only reason for mast rake... to induce weather helm for pointing or is there another reason.. i.e. rake the mast for good pointing then rake the rudders to balance the helm!!! This is what I am not sure about???

Cheers
