Head-On
A head-on look at the Pacific Cat 19 with the mast up.
There are sockets at the aft end of the cockpit to take a support arm that'll hold up the boom when the sail is down. From the holes in the hull, it looks like there used to be sockets on both sides. The ones on the starboard side were removed at some point, leaving only the ones on the port side.
The wood on the support arm is cracked at the bottom, and is in dire need of repair. The wood appears to be teak. The tiller arms are also teak on this boat, so some point soon I'll need to decide on how I'd like to treat it.
There's about three feet of room between the deck and the boom. So lots of room for getting across deck during a tack.
