Hi Guys,
New Tuning Guide should be posted on the website soon. We will be including
a section on sample rig measurements. It would be useful if we had a few
more comparisons. If you know or can check yours quickly and provide some
additional feedback it would be useful. Some of the measurements we are
looking for include:
1. Mast butt placement relative to the maximum aft location (E.g. 1"
forward of max aft position, all the way forward, etc.)
2. Mast at the partners (E.g. 1" block behind mast at partners)
3. Mast rake (Measured at the boom, E.g. 12" of aft mast rake measured
at the boom)
4. Shroud tension measured with a Loose gauge for rod rigging uppers,
lowers intermediate or number of turns past hand tight.
5. Max backstay pressure used
6. Heasdstay length (pin to pin)
7. Amount of mast pre bend
8. Maximum mast bend used
Any comments and or other observations will be appreciated.
Regards
