[quote=azcat].a boom, mast rotator and/or a barberhauler on a NACRA5.0...are you kidding me?
If racing in winds under 5 mph, no, not kidding. If your there to race.
Where I sail, we get the same wind patterns every day with few exceptions. That means racing in low winds for a race or two each day. It's a real PITA to lay on my back on the tramp parallel to the main beam with my foot rotating the mast or temp. rigging a line line do so. Adding the boom gives me pos. and neg. rotation without cluttering up the tramp. If I just want to go out and fart around, I can leave the boom off. Still no extra lines left on the tramp.[/quote]
