[quote=Wolfman]I just acquired 2 - 10 foot lengths of 1.5" diameter 6061 Aluminum tube with a 3/32" wall thickness. Do you think this will hold up to the forces put on a 5.2 boom?
Does anyone have a round boom and if so what are the dimensions? Rob what diameter was the tubing you used? Catdan, do you have specs on teh tubine you used
If I attach the main sheet directly to the main clew (like more modern boats) do you think it will rip out the 3:1 outhaul? It would move the main sheet about 8" back and the high angle is concerning.. <!-- editby --><em>edited by: Wolfman, May 28, 2010 - 11:59 PM</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
