The bottom line is mid boom sheeting was invented to please women who
wanted the cockpit free of that nasty shin banging traveler so dockside

activities would be easier to perform.


It was invented to clear the cockpit for all types of activities and is
safer for toddlers. I can see how such a thing would never be important
to you. Even with my RF headsail and mid-boom sheeting, the 35s5 is
still a far nicer boat than yours in EVERY way!
