The Bent Boom
It was a mast, not a boom, and it happened to one of my
students, not I. "NH_/)_" wrote in message m... How does one properly set the sails with boom being bent or does it matter--after hearing what happened to Ganz, that's a scary thought. NH_/)_ "Bobsprit" wrote in message ... Wouldn't a good sailor replace a bent, and probably weakened spar before ordering a new set of sails? Here's a pic showing the CLEARLY damaged boom of Capt. Neal's worn out Coronado 27. http://www.homestead.com/captneal/files/Closehaul2.jpg It's clearly compromised. Also clearly bent in this photo... http://www.homestead.com/captneal/files/Reaching.jpg What a disaster. What a shame. What an eyesore! Why not add a new ugly colored set of cushions to that boat to top it off? Oh...you already did. Capt RB |
