I can't help it; I have to ask the question:
Is the main is getting back winded predominantly by the 163? Wouldn't that argue better performance by a 155%?
I sail PHRF and I have bought a Dole carbon fiber main this year and have maximized my roach (within the tolerance of Nova Scotia ASPEN rating)...sorry guys. My Mylar 163% is bagged so now I am now faced with a decision that all PHRF sailors face, do I take a hit and sail a 163 or get a 155? My concern, even before I read this post, was the effect the 163 had on back winding the main. Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks
Jason
