I'm almost suer I know the answer but before I chop a jib boom i'll ask the obvious i'm sure.
Building my first EC12, have it all done less the sheets being run (ozman winch). As the rig stands the jib boom hits the mast, about 1/4 or so is past the leading edge of the mast. I have the following on my rig:
-internal counter weight
-travler system on the boom
-topping lift
So is the obvious solution to shorten the boom? If so i'll need to retap some holes but that is no biggie.
Is there an accepted length of booms? Mine is 25" i believe, I got it from Mike Z. (excellent products by the way)
Thanks in advance.
