If you tighten down the rig too much, the boat is dead in anything light to moderate. It is perfectly appropriate for the leewards to sag off in 18 knots of apparent. Good news: the original owner's manual has a succint discussion of tuning the rig. That's the manual in the small brown 3-ring binder. Alternatively, I recall that Gary Jobson discussed tuning the 9.1 in his book Speed Sailing (hope I remember the name correctly) - this was in a discussion of the Liberty Cup series. However, I don't now have the book - someone in the Cleveland fleet had it, and passed it around among the 9.1 owners. Good luck. |
