I recently bought a l985 Hunter 31. On my previous boats which were smaller Catalinas, I had split backstays which, when properly used, improved sail trim results on various points of sail. In looking at several 31's and 34's with the B&R rig, I have not seen any with split backstays. Some mast tuning info I have on the B&R rig does not mention anything about split backstays. Does anyone have any info, opinions, or experience with a split backstay for the H31 or H34? Obviously there is a significant rake built into the rig. It seems though, tuning is either tight and firm or some play in the backstay which is not adjustable. I appreciate anyone's feedback on this issue
