First: take the 400 dnx instead of 375.
400 has the same speed and gybes way better.
i use a +1 shim in rear position. I am a litte faster than you.
750/100v1/160 +1
650/100v1/160 +1 top 30,8kn
550/100v1/150 +1 top 31,5kn
450/100v2/150 +1 top 31,8 kn
400/100v2/150 +1
Hi can you share the distance from front screw to mast foot?
the Patrik foil Bretagne website says 104cm which is basically almost right at the beginning of the mast track on my phantom mk2 85cm 160L
I have tried it at 109cm from front screw (where i used to use the phantom Iris foil) that felt "the best" so far. ... i tired 110/111cm which I thought corresponded more to the future fly 130/135cm (measured from back of those boards) settings... was actually slower.
Basically just trying to find some neutral setting to start at
also why the 160 and not 195 rear wing?
I have only been using the 0.75 rear shim so far. (foil Bretagne website recommendation)
I weigh 84kg
have set the rake to 3.4degrees recently - i had it at 2.5 degrees and it actually felt better but everyone says 3+ degrees rake...
top speed so far has been 26 knots with 13 knots of wind flat water 650/195/v2
in more wind 15-18 knots day i was not able to get a higher speed granted water was not flat but i found that odd... i just used a smaller sail that day not sure if i should be changing front (and rear?
) wings at that point
I think what i need to figure out first is where to place the mast foot as i am getting conflicting information from many sources.
Thanks anyone for any input.
