Recently installed the tiller tamer so when sailing single handed i can perform the usual tasks on the mast etc. When i have experienced the problems i' sailing with jib,main and mizzen with no reefs. Boat trimmed to a point where i have slight weather helm.
I lock the tamer up, move forward and with a short space of time the boat luffs up into the wind. I have tried bearing away from my course then locking the tamer with the expectation she will luff up but perhaps point on the course i originally wanted but that doesn't work either. I know i'm 15 stone and moving my weight forward will upset the COE but can i do anything about this so i can work on the mast for a few minutes.
Any advice most welcome
Peter
