Free--you pick up: Two identical booms
 
I have two booms that I will give away to
anyone who can put them to use.

Both and wood, with SS tracks. Length's
are each 10'. Includes bails, blocks, gooseneck
fittings.

These would be good for a light schooner like
Tadpoles, or some sort of a homemade boat.

Better put a little bait on the hook next time . . .

In Neal's case, it doesn't matter, since he no longer has a boat. It was hit
by lightning, and even before that, it was on a mooring for his entire
existance in the keys.
