I'd like to adjust my mast rake so that the center-of-effort is slightly behind the center-of-lateral-resistance (off the water/on trailer). This should give me a small bias of weather helm. Has anyone figured out a method for this? (Other than just choosing the third hole down (for example) on the shroud chainplates).

Thanks in advance,
Eric

Check out the Hobie FAQ's concerning mast rake and weather helm. It will involve more than just your mast rake. You will also have to look at your rudders. The FAQ will explain all of it in detail.
