M_Boats: Weather helm and trim

Thanks to Dan, Tom, and Dave for the sage advice. Not what I expected at all. O.K. I will look into the 'archives' for info about mast rake and I guess the main thing is to get comfortable reefing way-earlier. I hadn't thought about whether the main was flat-enough. I really thought the mast rake was too far aft. Oh, does Bruce King really sail a M-15? I've spend far more time in Ericsons than I have in M's. Thanks! Steve M-15 631
