My webbing 'strop'(?) is about 1" wide with loops in each end so I just put one
loop thru the other and hook the mainsheet block shackle to the 'free' loop.
The entire length of the strop is only a little more than the circumference of
the boom. With the pressure on the strap and its width of 1" and with the strap
in contact with the top and sides of the boom, it will never move. Even when in
the slip, with any tension on the main sheet to keep the boom steady, it will
not move. Charlie NelsonC&C 36 XL/kcb -----Original Message-----

yours from slipping down the boom? How wide would you say the webbing is?

Subject: Re: Stus-List Boom Bail for 30-2 Why not consider a strong webbing
type strap with sewn loops on each end?--can be very strong, cheap and
indestructible. I have been using the same one on Water Phantom for 20+ years.

Subject: Stus-List Boom Bail for 30-2Hi all, We were headed out for the last
race of the season Saturday and as we loaded up the main for the first time,
the fitting on the boom that attaches to the main sheet snapped off our 30-2.
This was a single eye attached to a plate riveted to the inside of the boom. I
suspect this probably just weakened over time and happened to give out at the
weld. It was quite windy, but at that point the stresses on the mainsheet
weren’t out of the ordinary since we were just motoring out of the harbor. No
other damage to the boat and no harm to the crew as a result of this, so it
could have been much worse. Now the issue is how to find a replacement. Anyone
have an idea if these are available off the shelf or have another idea for
replacement? RigRite does not recognize it. I have also contacted Offshore
Spars, who I believe made the rig originally and helped me out with a boom vang
bracket last year. RigRite has one that is similar size but with a different
hole pattern that I probably could make work, but still hoping for a true
replacement if I can get one. Thanks for your help! Jim ReinardyC&C 30-2
