First boat in the country:questions
Posted: Mon Dec 18, 2017 1:56 pm
Hi all,
I'm hoping to take delivery of what I'm pretty sure is the first boat in the country. I've been sailing a 600 for four years and I'm sure I'll have more than a few questions. To begin, how tight or otherwise should the kicker be when single sail reaching? I note that the owner's manual suggests that you shouldn't jibe with 'excessive' kicker on. On the 600, I just left full kicker on for reaches and through the jibes. Thanks for your help. Can't wait to get started!
