Is anyone willing to share numbers in terms of lbs.of tension reading on the rod gauge? I have a gauge but am still fighting the rig. I believe I have 1150 lbs in my uppers, 750lbs. in my lowers and below the scale in the intermediates. This seems to equate to the tension suggested in the manual to get the leewards just un-taught at 15 knots. I'll check those numbers and report again. My forestay has a Harken foil on it so it can't be gauged-any suggestions? How about on amount of pre-bend? Or rake? |
