Thanks EE. I saw two pics that give me a pretty good ideal of how to rig the boom. I have the rope and all the pullys. I was thinking I needed to rig them to the end of the boom. But I guess I was wrong. The double pully rigged to the boom with single pulley's on ether side of the cabin hatch is for triming the sail. What exact purpose do the pulleys serve that attach the boom to the base of the mast? Oh yeah,,ROLL TIDE!!!!
