            <description><![CDATA[ It might be worth measuring your mast extension and boom. They are rarely accurate. I have 2 booms from the same brand supposedly the same size just a year difference in time of purchase. One is 3.5 cm larger than the arm setting suggests, the other is 2.5 cm smaller than the boom arm suggests. I have 3 different brands of extension..........one of them are accurate...i.e if you set them at 10cm they may provide more or less than 10cm extra mast length.<br />
Moral of the story.................as Angulo once helpfully said in a very old VHS ( yes VHS not DVD!) ..&quot;it dont matter how you set it as long as you set it right&quot;!!!]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I sail a manic 6m on Powerex rdm. Seems quite sensitve to setting: leech is loose to almost 3rd batten and almost 2cm outhaul. I can do less down and outhaul in lighter winds but sail less comfortable. As earlier said do it by eye.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Hi Jan - is the sail new - I sail Gaastra's and I find they need a few sail's for the luff material to stretch a little. So would go with the other advice and go on your instincts rather than dimensions for a few session]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ put some more outhaul tension and my advice for the future- NEVER rely on recomended measures ;)<br />
Sails are machine sewn and sometimes two sails from the same maker and of the same model, size and year behave noticabely different even when rigged on the same mast.]]></description>
