Tornado Alive recently stated in another thread in another forum (SA), that with the use of a transom foot strap and a chicken line he has never stuffed his Capricorn down wind, so they can't be that bad.
We do not use the toe strap, just the chicken line.
We have stuffed the bows on the Cap and T, however never cartwheeled whilst using the chicken line on either boat.
Spoke to Gashby about this on the weekend and his experiences..... He said they have found the same results, however they have cartwheeled dispite the chicken line on rare ocasions. Must of stuffed it big time..... Or may be my 95 kg crew hanging of the back helps keep it upright a bit more <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
