M_Boats: New owner -- looking for advice (long)

David; The fittings at the end of the boom are used for the mainsail outhaul and the fairlead is for the reef line attachment point. I don't know what the cleat is for but you said you knew. Maybe for a topping lift.

Hmm. Maybe I don't know what the cleat is for. I had assumed that it was for the mainsail outhaul. I'm going sailing again with the previous owner soon, so perhaps he can clue me in. David =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= David W. Wood -=- dwood@woodatwork.com 1981 M15 -=- Hull #163
