I am considering moving both boom blocks this yr. I saw someone do this last yr and he said that it did help in windy conditions. He moved the forward block a little forwrd so that it was more in line with the rachet block. The question I have is regarding the aft block. I thought you would move the aft block back a little so That you could pull the boom closer to the deck. However, someone said that you should move it forward of the factory set position so the boom will bend and help depower the sail. Any thoughts on this?
