Default Backstay tension

How come the adjustable backstay is never adjusted on Boobys boat? It
looks quite tight -is he worried about the cracks between the keel and
hull? If he lets it out won't the silicone he repaired it with get
squeezed out?

What effect does adjusting the backstay have when the motors running anyway?

Cheers MC
