That's a stupid thing to do. What about the lines that run through
the boom?


Real sailboats have all external lines. The in-mast and in-boom lines
are an invitation to disaster as are roll-up sails.



I guess you never heard of an outhaul. If you have an adjustable
outhaul, it has to run inside the boom.
