How does one properly set the sails with boom being bent
or does it matter--after hearing what happened to Ganz, that's a scary
thought.

Wouldn't a good sailor replace a bent, and probably weakened spar before
ordering a new set of sails?

Here's a pic showing the CLEARLY damaged boom of Capt. Neal's worn out
Coronado
27.

It's clearly compromised. Also clearly bent in this photo...

What a disaster. What a shame. What an eyesore! Why not add a new ugly
colored
set of cushions to that boat to top it off? Oh...you already did.
