[Alberg30] Main tack attachment

[sousa, stephen (ENG)]

Bill,

I had a new main made last year and made some of the same decisions. The one
thing I would recommend are jack lines to make it easier reefing.

Subject: [Alberg30] Main tack attachment


I'm buying a new North main (and genoa). Before the boat's measured in
November, I need to decide what to do with the tack attachment for the main
on the boom.

I have the original 1966 roller boom with the main tack attachment offset
about 6 inches from the mast. Will Keyworth, at North Sails, says if the
sail's cut properly that shouldn't be a problem at all as long as the
outhaul is pulling against that attachment instead of the sail track on the
mast.
Thoughts?

(Also, anyone else need new cloth? I didn't ask but I'm sure they would cut
a little break for multiple sail purchases. It's already the "boat show
discount" but we could ask.)
