I've just picked up paradigm 3533.
Trying to get her tunned up to a basic form of setting but whenever I pull rig tension on the mast just inverts. Seem as if the swings spreaders are not going any support.

Any tips on getting pre bend with these?
Are swinging spreader still in?

Out of interest how do others perform in a general handicap race in an f3-4 would a well set up 12 (design 8 or similar) be in front of a laser?

should a 12 be pointing higher than Laser radial or Lark?

I'm thinking of converting the my 12 to an off the boom sheeting system.

Does anyone know of there is an off the shelf way of doing it?
Or is the a really bad idea?! 

Since my Daughter and I have got back in our 12 I've been doing a lot of 12 geeking out!

I think the boat is great and can see why a lot of people fall in love with the boat and class. but with so many hull designs has anyone had any success being a larger helm? If so what Hull Design is best/Recommended

When I say larger helm, My scales comes to rest at  18stone.  all up crew weight is around 22stone ish.

We are currently playing in a Design 8

I noticed that my bailers are working very well at not being a bailer!

Ive worked out they are Andersen Super Max Bailers, has anyone got any advice on how to fix the ones I have,  they leak from the inside part I.e the part that sides down!

As they are rather expensive to replace? 

Hi all

Ive jus brought 3294 in the hope my daughter will sail with me 

I'm tying to find out a py for her. But Can not find any things recent. A Facebook message say they use 1094 at there club. What do others use?

Also any tips will be great
Hoping to give it a clean and stick the sails up tomorrow evening

Cheers
