I'm Surprised

that no one has commented on the thread titled "Don - white rock - weather helm". There is a ton of sail trim info there. It also shows how a mate can work against himself from a sail trim standpoint. You think you are taking corrective action but one step is cancelling out the other. Also, the chart is invaluable in that it tells you what controls to push or pull to adjust draft depth, draft position, twist and angle of attack.

I didn't get it

But I couldn't find the chart. I'm sure it would have made perfect sense with the chart.

Quick Reference Chart

Go to the thread titled "Don - White Rock - Weather Helm" and my second response gives you the mainsail sail trim controls used to adjust draft depth, draft position, twist and angle of attack. The lister named Don had a heeling problem and he outlined the adjustments he was making to correct the problem. Unfortunately, he was using the wrong controls to get the effect he desired.
