Isn't the sweet spot on a 30-1 only starting at 15+ knots? -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Curtis Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2013 10:09 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List 30 MKI weather helm
yea i'm with Ddwight on this one, My C&C30 mk1 # 675 loves 11 thru17 knots. I dont start thinking of a reef till i'm over 17 knots. I usley drop down to the working 115% first. If needed I will put the 1st Reef in around 18-22 knots. I have hade some uncontroled steering falling off the wind when tacking. that was my fault. not the boat. 1981 C&C 30 MK1 #675 Beaufort, Sc.
