[Rhodes22-list] highest comfortable wind speed

Steve

Give Stan a Crack at the sail before you email Doyle.   He's been good to
me.   Are you sure about your stay lengths?  Could your forestay be a
fraction too long or the turnbuckle misadjusted under the furlur cap (if
CDI?)  so even tensioning the backstay isn't sufficient?    

Da List:   If Steve has a forestay tension / length issue, how could he
tell?  If he stuck a level on the mast in a dead calm (or has a spinnaker
halyard to dangle a plumb-bob from) what should the rake be?  Mine came
freshly rigged by Stan's yard, but I have never actually tried to measure
it.
