I don’t have a 30-1, so I doubt this helps; but on my 42 the shrouds are a problem when sheeting tight while going upwind and using the genny car track.

Micheal Brown pointed out an interesting sailing magazine article http://www.sailmagazine.com/racing/regattas/headsail-sheeting/ My take away here is I should be sheeting as close as 7 degrees up to 10 degrees depending on wind. I visited my boat this weekend and based on my trigonometry math skills I would have not issue sheeting too close . It would be difficult to meet the seven degrees in light wind. With that in mind my concern is shroud location. Does any one with tracks have interference with the shrouds? I am thinking, when the wind pick up you want to flatten the foot, visually looks like the shroud would restrict sail shape. any comments?
