ramShackle Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Can someone please advise if the mast rake for a cat rigged W14 differs from a supersloop rig? I would have thought the rake may have to come forward a bit to compensate for the reduced lift without the jib. Thanks JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TornadoSport260 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Hi ramShackle, Whilst i don't sail cat rigged normally, I had a good stoush with one of the best cat rig sailors going around at the last nationals (Rob Thompson, WA). I didn't change any of my rig settings between cat rig or supersloop. The only change i did was use more downhaul to flatted the sail more. This is due to the change in the "angle of attack" the main has between supersloop & cat rig. Michael Rush, 6327 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
