Big boom sheeting

BTW Joe comparing your boat to Oriole is like comparing my
boat to the Queen Mary. Totally different scale.

My boat is almost 50% the size of Oriole . The Queen mary 19 time the
length of your trawler.
Your boat displaces 46 tons?

nautical triva bonus: Under the right condition you can pull the queen
mary with 8 pound test fishing line!
Only 8lbs resistance? Sure.
