Mine is the same (#310.) I took advantage of the open boom end to exit my internal reefing lines. They are protected from chafe by a bullseye fairlead mounted just inside the opening. Henry Monita On Tue, May 8, 2018, 8:04 PM John Schinnerer <john@eco-living.net> wrote:
Here's mine, from M-17 #38, 1974.
Looks like what someone described, and was wondering about. As far as I know this is the original setup (except the reefing hooks which I imagine were added at some later time). Has always seemed quite solid to me...haven't broken it yet anyhow! ;-)
