Default Re: New Rig

Alongside is good for maneuverability, not for speed. A Bridle or yoke will def help. Start off slow, and see how she runs. I've towed all sorts of sail boats, and they're all different. The hobie is pretty light, so I think you will need some sorta drag behind her. Also, take the mast down if you can. You'll have to experiment with either lifting the tiller, or lashing it straight.
