How To Setup Your Soling 1M • Dion RC Sails

My name is Pat Dion from Dion RC Sails!
In this video I'll break down my Soling 1M setup into three segments: Pre-Race Setup, Race Day Setup, and Post Race. I also include some race strategy tips, and a bit of information about aluminium rigs VS wooden rigs.

appreciated the zoom presentation 4 Feb 23 of this material and the discussion after

Thanks for sharing this. I have found that optimising the boat for upwind sailing gives best results. To do this and to balance the boat (i.e. the helm) I use the vang and backstay to adjust twist in each sail rather than adjusting the jib and main sheets.

Thanks! Just got a Soling with your sails! That’s a great primer to getting it set up. Initially i felt it had a little too much helm, so I’m thinking I have slightly too much mast rake. I’ll let you know how it goes….

Quick question, my hull number has 4 numbers, can I use just the last two or do I have to use all 4?
