A new way for yankees to test the rigging set maybe....

Is the forward stay to loose?
Or is it that the back stays are to loose?

Rig tension looks about right to me - very loose when the boat is not
actually under way. Why leave the rig under tension any longer than you
need to?

BTW, it looks like a 505, which doesn't have a backstay, let alone two.
Is there any boat that has back *stays*, i.e. more than one?



ahhh...Michigan sailing!

Well, not for another 5 weeks or so.
