15 inches sounds a bit much for a 30 but I'd try it for a while before I
make any change. If you don't see a lot of weather helm in stiff breezes,
don't worry about it.
I have 11-12 inches rake on my 35-1 and really like the way it sails.
Fairly neutral helm. And that's with a fairly old main.

if you plan to use butyl tape, I would strongly recommend trying Maine Sail’s

I just adjusted mine from about 13.5 to about 10.5 - 11 and it made a

I have the challenge that statement. When over 13 volts, the battery is in a
charging state — power is being put into the battery from an alternator or
external charging source.

12.7 volts is fully charged if the battery is at rest, as in sitting

Last year I had my forestay replaced (for a new roller furler) and it ended
up being longer than the original by maybe about 4 or 5 inches . I have
adjusted the forestay all the way down but I still need plenty of backstay
to keep it all tight. So now my mast rake is about 15

From what you are saying, it sounds like either your T-1275 has failed
for some reason, or you have a bad connection - possibly in the battery switch

That’s where I’m confused, to be honest — the spec sheet on the T-1275 is here:

The CC manual mentions 6 to 10 inches of rake (see below). I have recently

check out my setup. I'm in Back Creek.

Edd,It looks like you have a deep cycle battery. For engine starting you
want a starting battery. They are measured in CCA cold cranking amps. The
plates are thinner to allow a higher amp draw.
