Sorry,which post does this refer to? All harrys so far have had pretty much level decks and vertical masts, apart from one of the early prototypes where it was canted to windward. Good for racing, not such a good idea for cruising (Sail force increases as the boat heels) or light air (sail falls to ww). The 15m in the shed at the moment has a canting/raking rig. will be interesting to see how it works out.
Hey Rob this is what I meant have a look in photo's under forces at play just a thought the vertical lines show rotation due to precanting.
Some might say INDUCED positive / negative for anticipation of.
