I was struck by the fact that with the chute up, the bobstay was constantly throwing up spray which to me means it is like adding a brake to the bow. Probably not a big issue on a boat of this size, but on a dinghy it would be slow. On another boat, the entire crew was standing near the transom, presumably trying to keep the bow high which I would guess was for the same reason. It would leave me concerned about the balance of the boat with that monster chute up. Dave On Nov 21, 2015, at 8:26 AM, dwight veinot via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote:
