I believe the trailing edge of the board should extend into the keel trunk a bit. It should not come out of the keel trunk.

The previous owner of our M-15 tied a knot in the centerboard line which prevents it from going down all the way I think. Right now, the board goes down far enough so that the trailing edge of the board is still within the keel trunk. Is is supposed to go down further? I suspect so, since I don't know how else to get access to the line. Is there any reason that someone might not want the centerboard to go down all the way? The boat seems to sail great as is! Thanks for any assistance!
