We are posting tuning guides and other hints which have been provided by sailmakers. The form and content of the statements made therein are those of the respective writers and not those of Etchells Fleet 20. The tuning guides are provided for reference and to allow comparison of the differences in tuning philosophy. Any questions should be directed to the sailmaker.

As always, we are looking for ways to make our boats go faster so if you have tips or links please share them with us.
