B. Attaching the Boom
9. Open the clamp at the boom front end and remove the rope loop
from the retainer hook as shown in photo B6.
10. Next, Slide the boom upward from the bottom of the sail, threading
the sail through the space between the boom arms. The boom connects
to the mast through the lower cutout in the luff sleeve.
11. With the boom clamp open, pry the grip section open enough to
insert the mast. The grip section is designed to flex enough to
accommodate the mast.
12. Pass the rope loop around the back of the mast and over the
retainer hook. Before closing the clamp, position the boom roughly in
the middle of the sail’s lower sleeve cutout. See photo B10.

13. Close the clamp to secure the boom on the mast. The clamp should
close with a snap when using firm pressure. Tighten the rope (if neces
-
sary) by pulling it through the cleat in the front clamp. If it is too loose,
the boom will slip on the mast. If it is too tight, the clamp will not close.
