Nah, all you need to do is add some topmasts to the ones
you have now.
Add tops'ls, t'gallants, and royals; you could beat
Elissa! And if
not, think how much fun it would be climbing aloft to your
new
yardarms.

Biggest disadvantage in modern rigs IMHO, you can't swing
mutineers &
pirates from the yardarm. Swinging them from a carbon
fiber spinnaker
pole just ain't the same.


hey Doug, I saw this sweet looking small 20' boat the
other day, 2 masts, a long 8' bow sprit and yardarms for
small square sails ( not up when I saw her). I had my hands
full and couldn't get a pic.
