Class 5 set up issues...v2
Carrying on from my 'Class 5 Set up issues' thread....

thought you all would be interested in the feed back from setting up my old class 5.
I still have a light front wheel even with 2.5kg of lead over it. And sitting up and shifting my weight forward going into the luff turn with a sheeted in sail. I'm thinking that I need to sheet in even harder. Which means I either need to remove my head when I go sailing so the boom can make its way to the other side or... I have to stand the mast up some more. Which is going to change the CofE! I think that to avoid this if I put a rollock on the end of my boom it will force more bend into the mast and flatten out the sail more and earlier. Currently the boom pushed beyond the mast to one side when max sheet is applied. What do you guys think?
