Boom position on a close reach


 

People:

I got a few questions regarding balance of Hull 555.
I am experiencing a lot of weather helm when it gets
above 15 mph. I am thinking the shape of my main is
blown out but I am not sure.

1) Is there a procedure out there for checking
standing rigging setup that I could follow? By this I
mean stays tension and how to measure it, mast rake
etc.

I can hardly put the boom close to the boat center
line when close hauled and I am wondering if this is
normal?

In summary, on a blow this boat wants to round up and
I am fighting it all the time.
