First thing. There is a vital misspelling in the blog post. "....mast rake aft generates weather helm which will aid in your pointing ability."

'Why rake your mast aft? Nick Turney explains that mast rake aft generates weather helm which will aid in your pointing ability. Aft mast rake will also depower the sail plan by changing the position of the center of effort in relation to the keel. '
Uh Pete,
Your boat have a keel?
Are you that bored Pete?
