Hello Tony
Thank you for your info. I guess from what you describe you have a sliding gooseneck? Mine is fixed. When you have your mainsail hoisted to the correct position what do you estimate is the distance from the coauchroof to the top of the boom at the mast?
many thanks
Roy
PS Where do you sail? I am on the Medway/Swale at Queenborough, Kent.
