5-6 m/s (10-12 kn). In this wind, your dinghy is fully powered but hiking all out you can still balance the boat with a sail trimmed for maximum drive. This calls for a very loose outhaul and the cunningham still untouched.


- Sheet:
tight, the boom very close or touching the deck.

- traveller: set so that the boom end lies 5 cm inwards or on the transom corner.

- inhaul: 1-2 cm from mast

- cunningham: loose

- outhaul: loose, up to 10 cm from max.

- centerboard: straight down

- mast rake: in base position *)


In 5-6 m/s the boom comes down to the deck close to the transom corner. To power up the sail keep the outhaul loose and leave the cunningham open up to about 6 m/s (12 kn) of wind (click for another view).
