Hi all,

not realy big on theory, but my experience downwind with low aspect boards is. I have always been a boards down, under spinnaker sailor, but recently in survival conditions have been pulling them up half way, I think this allows boat to pull away easier and it doesn't follow waves as much and slips sideways depowering some?

I would imagine the longer the boards the sooner you should pull them up some. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
