ok, i think i've got as pretty good handle now on
tensioning my rig (E-25 c/b)- but, i also read alot
that too much tension over time is not good on the
chainplates, hull, etc- undue strain and all that...
so, do people loosen the rig back up at the dock?
or is a correct all around tension for most sailing
conditions (i.e. 15 - 20 k here in homer, ak) ok to
leave for a season? and how about winter, in the
slip??
never received an answer on my question/post
from last week about mast rake on the E-25- i'll
slip that back into the mix too- my guess is that
we don't really want much of a rake with this rig?
thnx~
