Default Mid-Boom Sheeting

Gary,

You have a much longer boom than I do. Mine is only about 10 foot and my
mid-sheet is just about mid-boom. The picture shows the set up of the
New Main, with the vang up tight. I was fitting it. You can see the
bulge with the vang drawn up. You'll notice the traveller is just about
center.

When I releashed the vang the bulge disappeared. I adjusted the outhaul
to get the proper balance between tack & clew.

Thom,
I am not sure I understand what you mean.
