Yea, to the eye on the sheet. My spin sits low, couple inches over the hulls. Its very hard to see whats below me on course. I am changing that up some this winter by raising the tang and subsequently raising the pole height. Gonna also change up the bridle system back to stainless from dyneema, every knot slips on dyneema.
I'm also thinking about a custom jib, my boat runs a Tiger jib now on a self-tacking system. My bridles are further from the x-bar than a Tiger so I have a big hole between the mast and jib. The sheeting angle of the self-tacker should allow me to add 2-3" to the foot of the jib, it will still be substantially smaller than a stock jib but I want it as large as possible.
