I decided the daysailer had too much weather helm so got a bigger old
jib off a friend and we've bolted a chunk of 40x40x5mm aluminium RHS on
for a bowsprit, made up a new forestay and a few other bits. Take it
out for a spin tomorrow, see what happens......


Is it sail plan or does the helm only come in when she heels?


Dunno. Too iggerant. Rounds up beautifully when you get a good gust I
can tell you that. New jib sets nicely but the tides & weather haven't
been cooperative the last couple days. Plus I'm supposed to be in the
office working. Tomorrow I reckon we'll go out assuming there's any
wind.
