For downwind, I loosen it to zero pressure (or thereabouts).

I keep reading and being told that it is really important to adjust for optimal speed. One thing I have not encountered is a guide to off-wind backstay adjustment. I would suspect that on any angle beyond a close reach it may not matter much. What do others do off the wind? Thanks- Dave David Knecht S/V Aries 1990 C&C 34+ New London, CT
