Richard, You must have a large antenna. My 35/3 has a mast height of 50.5 feet according to sailboatdata.com. (No dimension for your boat). Your mast looks to be about 2 feet shorter than mine.
Aren't the readings at Mean Low tide? Have you factored that in? Can you rig a temporary adjustable forestay? 24 degrees is a lot of heel! Maybe 10 large friends on the rail?
