J/30 Class Association Forums J/30 Forum Racing Tools and Techniques Headstay Tension

Sorry to hijack this thread, but what about for those of us racing PHRF only, without the possibility of one-design racing. What is the optimal position for the mast step? Is the one inch aft rule because that's what the one-design rules permit or is it because that is the optimal position?
