All,
I recived this scale from this source a couple of years ago and used the
median settings on my boat. They were satisfactory up to 15 knots and
then started to show lee shroud sag. I pumped up the tension to where I
showed no sag beating in 20Kt(whitecaps all over), but I don't remember
the setting as I am here at the computer. It's on the boat. I'll get
it if anyone wants it.
And, yes, I promised photos of my cabin trunk gear in place. Today.

Lance -
I am pretty sure that was put together by Carl Schaefer a few
years back and ALL the boats on that list are racing boats and
they require mast rake from the adjustable backstay.
I am very surprised that Hi Tide's tensions are as high as shown.
Please set up your boats (I assume by your title that you are
setting the boats up to cruise) tighter than the attached.
