You realize that the feeder opening is below the boom on some boats. I'm

Please explain the details of how this works and give examples of boats
that are
rigged this way. I'm truly curious. I don't think you are correct, and I
can't
even imagine the setup you are claiming.

That's just it - it doesn't work. If you haul the sail all the way up on a
Neptune 16 the gooseneck is above the feed slot. The sail is original stock,
not shortened. It's the only boat I've seen like that.

All I can figure is that the sail is not to be hauled all the way up. Any
advice, suggestions, commments or insults are appreciated.

I don't own a boat, this is my friend's boat.

Amen!
