We're getting ready to purchase a new main and mizzen. I hope it helps. I'm thinking of having the mizzen cut so it's flat without reefing.

I applaud you if you tack through 90 degrees into the wind. We are more like 150 degrees. I'm sailing an Island Packet in a couple of weeks - anxious to see how that one fares (also a full keel heavy displacement boat). I'll share any rigging tips I pick up.

Where are the other owners? Does anyone else want to share their experiences??
