    Steve, That was a great way to spend 12 mins. I sail my Houdini on the Exe and took it for a holiday on the Helford River two weeks ago. Your video brought back all those holiday memories of sailing along wooded river valleys until the sunset. I think I will have to take the boat on another away day to Redshank Point now!

    Hey Jason. It is definitely worth a cruise.
    The Helford is on my list of places to cruise ASAP. Glad you enjoyed the films and memories

    Hey Steve,
    Your mainsail looks like it's setting perfectly. What did you do?

    Hi Joel
    Followed your advice my friend
    A. Raised the sprit boom position on the mast
    B. pulled the mainsail luff closer to the mast at the base
    C. More tension on the down haul
    D. Changed way I raise sail. I now leave it partly raised on the topping lift, hoist the sail so that the top yard goes completely up to the masthead pulley box, then release topping lift and tension with down haul

    Seems to work better?

    It's looking great now. I can't even see any wrinkles. I bet the performance of the boat has noticeably improved as well. I'm off to watch your vid a few more times! Well done.
