[Public-list] Gooseneck replacement?

[Gordon Laco]

Hi there - 

It is tough to beat the strength and versatility of the gooseneck and track
set up that Whitby gave our boats.

Being able to adjust the tension on the luff of the main by hauling or
easing the downhaul is a good way to control power in the mainsail... I
think that you would miss it a lot; especially if you ended up with a
fragile fixed one.
