Ever'body,

My computer ate the email that asked about Loos settings, so I'm sending the whole thing, which ain't such a big deal:

3/16th uppers               640

Aft lowers:                     350  (I believe these are 1/8")

Fwd lowers:                   350 ( " " " " " " " " " "" " "  "")

Forestay
w/backstay adjuster  full off             440
w/backstay adjuster full on:      880


backstay itself, full off  3

These settings are median of 5 numbers each published on this site two years ago, including a tweaking when we found the leward shrouds sagging a bit at 20 kts.

That last beautiful Friday almost two weeks ago found us in 20 +kts (whitecaps everewhere, and long windstreaks, so top kts observed was 2t5+). No sag with these settings.

My boat's a 76 standard rig,
