I guess you never heard of an outhaul. If you have an adjustable
outhaul, it has to run inside the boom.


Not so! I have an external outhaul. It is a four-block purchase outhaul.
One should avoid interal lines at all cost.

What is an "external" outhaul? The outhaul is the line attached to
the clew of the mainsail. It runs through the boom.

Go ask your Laser champion to show you an adjustable outhaul that is
*NOT* run inside the boom


We're not talking about lasers here, dumbass.

It depends on the boat. The catalina 27 has an external outhaul. The
bad thing is that you have to leave the cockpit to adjust the tension.

JR, don't be too upset with Horvath. He thinks his hunter is the example for
a good boat. He's ignorant.

I thought you were talking about sailboats. Many larger boats than a
Laser have no internal rigging. You might want to check it out.

"I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen;
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.

And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires."
