I'm struggling to get optimum performance out of my rig.
I have been off the water sailing lasers for some years and in returning, my tuning is alittle rusty.
For example, on the weekend 0-10 knots of wind I set my rig up with a heap of foot maybe about foot and a half, just enough cunningham to take out the wrinkles out of the Luff and Set the main sheet blocks about a foot apart and set the vang(Kicker).
First race did not prove well.
For the second race in same conditions I pulled in the foot, let go of the cuningham and and kept the vang the same. Bang! twice the speed. So that worked, just not sure why.
Whats the simplest set up in the following?
0-10
10-15
15-20
20+
Cheers
