Ryan This has little to do with prebend but
If you are experiencing to much weather helm I would suggest the top of your mast is too far aft, try adjusting the turn buckle on the fore stay to bring the top of the mast further forward, and after making say 2-3 turns of adjustment try her out and decide if you need a little more tensioning...if the rest of your rig is setup right you will eventually reach a balanced helm under heavier wind conditions after which on more tensioning you may actually have lee helm too much for your liking.

Im 4" aft now 3-4" per bend. I feel theres still to much weather helm above 13-16kt. I believe the XL has the same rig as the R if theres any one out there?
