Bending the mast with the cunningham... on monohulls with more or less
conventional rigs... is a new one on me. Cats use what is basically a
very powerful cunningham to bend the mast, but their rigs are very
different.


But a good dinghy sailor should have known this. Regardless of what you
may say, the cunnignham will always flatten the sail.


Back to school for you Doug. Bwhahahhahahahah


Yep. Always something new to learn... that's one of the differences
between me & you, Navvie... I am learning new stuff all the time, you
are convinced you already know everything. Maybe you got so smart from
watching TV, like Boobsie?


You are such a bad loser.
