[Rhodes22-list] Main sits low

[Julie Thorndycraft]

Bud,
I would agree with your assessment. I do not have a picture but we were 
sailing last night and our IMF does not come down that low in the slot - 
there is no bunching. We have the modified IMF with the roach/batten but I 
doubt that would make a difference.
Julie
