I’ve had the same problem, which prevented sleep in a rolly anchorage. A simple solution was to sheet the boom fairly tight, then use a short length of 3/8 inch line to pull the end of the boom over toward one side, in my case, to a jam cleat near the main jib sheet winch. This is part of my normal procedure before turning in for the night.

I lubed it and still no luck. Really annoying in an anchorage. Anybody has any suggestions? Harald Kitchener, On
