Hello , I'm new owner of 89 Olson 911S Ericson build #102, sailing out of Barrie Yacht club on Lake Simcoe, Ontario.Sailing up wind in 10 -15kn, I have lots of helm, even playing traveler aggressively to point it seems to be slowing the boat. Centre of power is too far back. I would normally decrease rake of the mast and flatten main, but mast has no rake at all, it leans forward a bit and main is very flat,esp on top. Boat is not equipped with checkstays. Is this amount of weather helm normal with 911?This is a great boat and we have lot of fun between cans Vlad Zdvorak
