Hi Roger and Ellen,

Placement of harness lines: Is there an easy way to determine where the lines should be for a certain size sail. Or do you need to make one run to determine the placement by the pressure on your hands. Should the ends be two hand widths apart or less than that.

How does the position of the mast track affect getting into the foot straps. Being powered up is the most important part of this equation.

If you are just trying to get into the foot straps what is the best spot for them and how much of your foot should be into the straps.

thanks for the info.
Sandy
