Stan has answered this question on the list many times. The R22 sails
better with the nose down. I am assuming that you purchased this boat from
someone recently and it was probably added by the previous owner. Only problem I
have with it is that it is loose and not secured in any way. If it starts
sliding around, it could damage the hull. Just my 2 cents worth. Hope it
helps.
