    This all fantastic information, thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    But I’m chock full of questions. Now with regard to the traveller arrangement – the looser the line, the closer the traveller block comes to midline as the sail is sheeted in is that right? So there is not only lateral adjustment but also angle of pull?

    Thanks for that Phil. Things quiten down I guess, when running downwind and so there would be more time to monitor the masthead indicator. But I can also see Shanes point when going upwind and in a busy start.

    Thanks Shane. The Sabre is an absolute beauty. What a joy to sail. It lets you exercise all the technique without wiping you out just trying to hold the boat up.
