Thanks for the info.

I think we used short tabs most of the time in San Francisco.
I vaguely recall one rare light air race where we used the long tabs.

It was a long time ago.

How and when do you use your OZ? I can only remember changing
them once in SF.

What jibs are you using Bart?
I'll bet one is a North GM but the setup for each sail is different.
Basic is, if you find you're needing a lot of backstay, go for long
tabs.
If you need a little more power, go long.
Short tabs on flat water with steady breeze and a soft forestay, the
groove will be narrower but easy to stay in on flat water.
