SETUP <strong>AND</strong> <strong>TUNING</strong><br />

1. Downhaul<br />

a. Thread line as shown. Race and slalom sails should<br />

be rigged using the 6:1 technique.<br />

b. Downhaul sail until tack-fitting is aligned with the<br />

edge of the extension (as shown). This edge<br />

represents the end of the luff length of the sail.<br />

08<br />

For example, when the extension is set on 22 cm,<br />

and used on a 460 mast, the edge of the extension<br />

measures 482 cm to this point.<br />

c. In stronger winds, you can increase downhaul<br />

by approximately 1 cm.<br />

d. In lighter winds, you can release downhaul by<br />

approximately 1 cm.<br />
