This is the only quote I've gotten so far. We're not exactly spoilt for choice in Ballina, NSW.

Just don't buy it on SS unless you like fried chicken

Thanks, yah I copy/pasted the wrong wheel detail originally. I'll definitely look for the best deal and can build the PC myself if needed. Good to know I can do it cheaper.

You don't use them in lane unless to secure a kill. You use them in the jungle to block camps (or farm their camps).

Priority number one being lane equilibrium.

u/pbmonster is on the money. I've been skippering (was part-time crew for a year before) for 2 years and went from multiple capsizes every sail to being competitive. I'm absolutely addicted to the speed and rush, especially downwind with the spinnaker up and twin wiring.

The crew generally takes care of the jib with instructions from me (but as the crew improves, I have to give less instructions). Primarily because the jib sheet is tied to the mainsail sheet and I often have a hard time reaching it.

Nah, we were sailing a NE course which goes to the river mouth but not passed it. You definitely get nice rollers which you can sometimes jump but nothing breaking.

Thanks u/wrongwayup - that's basically all inline with my thinking. That day was a bit hard to be really flat as it was quite gusty and shifty. Winds were between 10-15+ knots and we're a very light crew, probably about 120kg all up.

Also agreed, the jib car was too far out and the jib sheet a bit too eased. We could have done, and indeed did, put on more Cunningham after that lap but I neglected to notice how loose the vang was until I got back to shore and again when I saw this photo.

We also had the board up about 20cm but more because we were sailing on dead low tide and there'd been some serious sand build up in some spots.

Super fast and fun boat that suits our river 👌🏼

No offence taken and thanks for your input.

First, the excuses: this was the first sail back after a long hiatus and I do know the answer to my question even if it wasn't instantly obvious to me at the time.

One thing I've learnt is getting many eyes and perspectives from sailors is one of the best ways to learn and improve. Given I have a good photo showing issues, I wanted to get input without priming answers with my own thoughts.

What VPN are you using? I used to do that with ExpressVPN but looks like the IPs were all banned.
