I was looking for thoughts on adjusting the mast foot position for pre bend in the rig. Im 4" aft now 3-4" per bend. I feel theres still to much weather helm above 13-16kt. I believe the XL has the same rig as the R if theres any one out there? Thanks,RR Ryan Raber Scapa C&C 34/36r 1990 _

Ryan, Your sailmaker may be the best source for advice on prebend. He knows how much prebend he allowed for in his sail design. How much rake are you starting with? You may want to reduce that for stronger winds? My boat originally had an extra 2" toggle at the bottom of the headstay. In heavy

Ryan This has little to do with prebend but If you are experiencing to much weather helm I would suggest the top of your mast is too far aft, try adjusting the turn buckle on the fore stay to bring the top of the mast further forward, and after making say 2-3 turns of adjustment try her out and d

So I am saying that your forestay is too long, I said tensioning as I described tensioning it actually shortens the length of the fore stay under any load. Shorten the fore stay with 700-1000 pounds on the backstay, go for a sail to weather in 15-18 apparent adjusting your backstay up to about 200

Ryan, how are your sails? Can you set luff tension to get the draft forward? Can you achieve extra bend (beyond pre-bend) to depower the main? Dwight is correct in that mast rake is the first step to a balanced helm, mainly through forestay length; pre-bend is to stop the mast inverting and
