Default Staysail boom

Have you sailed the Alerion 28? It works very well on that boat. And
I'm sure it can work well on others.


Read the advertising brochure a bit more carefully, Bubbles. Or maybe
you simply don't know enough about sailing to recognize the difference
between the Hoyt boom and a plain ol' staysail boom.

As it happens, I have sailed an Alerion; the Hoyt boom is neat but it
takes up a lot of room on & under the foredeck. Personally, I wouldn't
recommend, unless on a much bigger boat.
