We are new to the C Scow racing scene & have some questions about board height:

1) The Melges tuning guide suggests that in 0-8 kts "The head of your board should be just 2” above the board box slot". Does this measurement apply to an older C? Ours is an '84 Melges.

2) Generally, how should the boards be positioned when going downwind in light wind vs. heavy?

Thanks for any suggestions!
