The name comes from the tack you're on when you fly it. The Main Boom has to be out of the way, as in a down wind Tack or RUNNING before the wind. It is one of the saving graces of a Yawl Mizen Masts (Besides being very pretty) Hmmm. It looks to me like the yawl in the picture is reaching, not running - tough to tell from a 2D picture, but the spinaker pole looks to be barely to windward of the bow. http://www.goodoldboat.com/classifieds/TonyPeot.jpg //Walt |
