So, from experiace, mid boom to toe rail with no brake, not good. Had that on the LO300. 3m waves, down wind. Rudder out of water on the crests. Boat went to port, backwinded the main. Bent the boom where the preventer was attached.

I have never seen an end-boom preventer. I also have a boom brake device I need to rig up one of these days. It does not prevent a gybe, it just makes it sloooooow................ Joe Coquina
