Hi Fellow Frers 33 sailors/racers.=A0=20
=A0
We have had a Fress 33 Tuning Guide posted on the web now for a couple of m=
onths inviting comments.=A0 Bottom line is that apart from those who have c=
ontributed to the development of the Guide we haven't heard much from anyon=
e else.=A0 We are looking for some additional rig measurements and settings=
 now that boats are rigged and in the water.=A0 Our objective is to make it=
 easier to race your boat competitively wherever you race/sail.=A0 Although=
 we recognize that a Tuning Guide will always be a work in progress we woul=
d like to finalize this version.
=A0
Please have a look at the Guide and provide your comments to the underside =
prior to the end of June.
