(main and 135%)
· Rake is something I need some education about
At the dock, check mast position to be sure it's not leaning to one side. Use a
halyard to measure from the top of the mast to the rail on each side. Then

Maybe you need more weight on the rail or a new main? Was your jib
baggy or flat? Too many folks in the cockpit? Get the main trimmer
off the other boat to sail with you for a practice sail.
