[quote=MN3]Reduced, not eliminated - for sure
but i THINK the force "direction" is also moved - no longer trying to tow inward but the forces moved into a more straight upward direction.
the hulls have a lot more strength in this direction of force
[quote=Andinista][quote=MN3]lowering the bridal improves performance and stability and sometimes sheeting angles
but at the risk of adding forces to the hull [/quote]
I think tension at the bridle is only reduced, the effect of a bigger jib doesnt seem to add a lot, as opposed to the angle improvementEdited by Andinista on Jan 08, 2018 - 05:20 PM. [/quote][/quote]
