   • I have a pair of orange lights on the ends of a light board across the transom, facing forward. The lights extend past the transom to the full beam of the boat/trailer.

   How do you rake a boat aft?

   • You can crank down on the backstay to move the tip of the mast aft, but that basically creates more prebend and not rake. That prebend, when attempting to depower the boat, can have the same effect on the centre of effort, but not as dramatically as if you were to shorten the headstay and reset the mast’s angle of rake.
