I am still at a loss I can't figure out what is best?
I know you racer types know all about twinking for speed I guess I am asking

you will get lee helm if you rake forward.. the boat will want to turn
downwind all the time.

If you rake aft you will get weather helm. About 3-5 degrees of weather helm
is desirable in most boats.
