the tangerine can be a great boat if you twik it a bit. the original sails were made by Super Sails in Ft. Lauderdale. Also, Kent Sails made my sails and they have made one other set, so you can go kentsail.com and ask them for the specs, and for a price. If you go hank on, you want to get the spitfire, storm jib as well as the genoa. In anything over 12 knots switch to the spitfire and the boat will point like a bird dog, 40 degrees into the wind, also, I moved my mast forward a few inches - as for the rudder, the tangerine rudder is correct, the Renken rudder is a joke. if the boat is tuned correctly you can hold the tiller with two fingers in 25 knots of wind, I did it last week. The boat can be great if you tune it correctly - |
