[Alberg30] Staysail and Jib boom installation

[John Birch]

The drawing is for a spinnaker staysail, for light air with the wind at about 70 -120o off the beam. You would need to fasten through deck to the stem and beef the mast with
runners unless you ran it all the way to the mast head for heavier air applications.
