Mine is a '79. Hanked on sails, vang, shin-smasher traveller, long genoa tracks, cunningham, outhaul. Not got round to a backstay adjuster (yet), and no flying sails (yet). Don't race her on account of the cost of racing sails, except of course when anyone happens to be sailing in the same direction as me, in which case somehow I always seem to end up racing them, even if they don't know it.

Hanked on foresails, no spinnaker, adjustable split backstay (which seems overkill for such a small mainsail), boom vang, shin ripping traveler in the cockpit.

It's all kind of awkward for me because everything is in a different place compared to my previous boat. Our Thursday night races do not allow spinnakers. Dwight I'm glad to know yours did well off the wind. I an pretty sure if I can improve my sheeting angles off wind I will do better. Thanks!
