Very helpful! Do you have anything in the same vein for more wind? There are similar things on the Contender site but they assume some knowledge (ie more than I have)- after my first attempt this w/end I was trying to work out where to put my hands- the old dagger grip put the tiller extn in the wrong place and my mainsheet hand was fouling on the trap elastic- looking at vids it seems people use the over the shoulder grip for the extn so I need to re learn a few things. The main cleat seemed very low and I could only cleat in it using my foot to push the sheet down, maybe that is a good thing, but sheeting in was an issue. Any advice most welcome!
