Default Staysail boom

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.

They are both types of staysail booms as the Hoyt Jib boom can be used

Umm, sure.
Whatever you say.

There is a very very big difference between a the Hoyt type boom and a
traditional staysail boom.
If you know what it is, please explain so that we can tell you're not
BSing.... again....



I oughta know, Doug. I actually work with this stuff


Yeah, sure. That's why you don't know what a Hoyt boom is or what it
does.

I've sailed the 28 and had no issue with the deck space used.


Of course not.

Doug, Doesn't it make you want to puke when he does

Nah, Bubbles makes me laugh. It's clear that he thinks being a sailor
is *cool* but I don't know why he thinks he can fool anybody. Calling
himself "Captain" shows how clueless he is. I don't read very many of
his posts and wouldn't have read this one except for your reply, Bart.
