[quote=iridian]I'd forgotten about the galvanic corrosion of carbon and aluminum. Urgh. I'll need to think through that some more. Might need to use S Glass.
@mN3 surprisingly its not so bad. There is very little bounce. The sail shape is slightly distorted causing vibration of the bottom of the sail, but the waves cause very little sail deformation. At some point I intend to put a spinnaker pole on it to reinforce the net, but it'll be a bit before I can get there.
The aluminum pipe is structural aluminum and pretty thick, I'm going to rivet in mounting points on each side of the front and back crossbeam to keep the pole from swaying back and forth. The T at the end of it is pretty good for stabilizing though.[/quote]
