Take a look on page six of the archives (upper right corner of this page). There was a discussion that got a little heated but it might give you an idea about the subject.

[> Gaff Rig -- Gordon (yep....), - Friday - 06/22/07 - 5:51pm

You know, I was thinking about converting my M-40 to a gaff rig. It usially seems like a good idea after a couple of glasses of gin - and I've been drinking alot lately. I've made a couple of sketches - usially on bar napkins. And I do really like the idea, there is that little problem of a triad in the way, not to mention the spreaders are too low. But, I think it would look great! You could argue it would ruin the 'balance', but it's not a fast sailer anyway..... - just a thought....
