On my 79 Hobie ( l am a newbie to this sport ) l have raked my mast back and now l am wondering if l should be pinning my jib sail up higher on the ajuster........l initally had it in the 2nd hole from the bottom but another sailer on our lake (different boat brand) said that the jib should be pinned at the top or even higher with a shackle if possible to make boat point higher.....has anyone else tried or heard of this
Thanx

Play around with the settngs until there are no wrinkles in either the leech or foot of the jib.
