You can have the boom. I wouldn't have one.

me too... don't like self-tacking jibs either.

I've been a fan of them since I saw one on a 38'
Swedish boat owned b a friend of mine. He and
his son won the Double-Handed Farallone's with
it.

I've used them on Hanse's and the system works
well--any you can put a big Genoa for the light air
days. I only miss the Genoa when sailing down
wind. A spinnaker would fix that.
