Staysail boom
The boat is marketed to clueless noobs that can't
or are afraid to fly a spinnaker. Say, that would
be a good boat for you Swabbie!
Sigh...ho hum.
The Alerion 28 is hardly marketed to anyone "clueless." It's a fairly
high end daysailor and weekender for the more "mature" sailor. Mark
Plough over at Doyle (NY and FL) had one for a while and he's a tad
more knowledgable than you fellas when it comes to sailboats.
Doug was wrong, as usual. Then again, he can argue with my vendor if
he wants.
BTW, Bart....I'm sailing tomorrow with a few friends at 1:00. 150 City
Island Ave. Left side, just past the school. I'm on channel 77. Or
tell the dockmaster you're there for Bob Brody and I'm on K dock near
the end. Looks like plenty of wind. You can also email me in the
morning if you really want to come and I'll buzz you. I don't think
I'm too far from you, maybe 60-90 minute drive?
