Hi Brent,I have looked at the speed pac before. It's pretty good. I'm set up with about 12" of take this year, and I'm pointing pretty good. I have a roller furling headsail, but race with a 155% tacked on the deck and run up the furler. It's ok, I think a tuff luff would be better, but I'm not giving up the furler. It's not worth it to me. I have found that a clean bottom is a big key. Its suprising how much a bit of sludge slows you down. Have you ever tried really emptying everything off the boat to loose weight? It's such a PITA to store everything, but if it really helps it's one free step you can take. How much take do you sail with and are you able to get much prebend in the mast. I find it's tough to get it to start bending.....maybe I'm not putting on enough tension.....My loose gauge is old and I'm not sure that it registers right...... ThanksMark

Did you see a copy of the Speed Pac issued in 1984 based on performance evaluation of Smoke, hull #1. There’s great stuff in there. The biggest item is the 27-5 likes lots of mast rake.
