Have a Friend who just bought a really nice 5.5 with a Carbon Mast and is looking for tips on Rig Tuning such as Mast rake, Spreader Distance and Diamond Wire Tension.

He had the boat out this Saturday in 10-15 and it just seemed off, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

i wasn't aware the 5.5 came with a carbon mast...

if the mast is not the original then he should try to find out who made it and for what boat

if it is a nacra mast for the f17? then he could start by looking for tuning information for that boat

where does he sail so the expert mast tuners can chime in if he's nearby
