This fall we moved the boom gooseneck up a foot on Anchovy. It just so happened that her main luff was 18" short to begin with. I assume the PO bought the wrong sail or some other snafu. I'm planning on installing a Garhauer rigid vang this year and tearing off, with extreme prejudice, the wire topping lift. I wish I had a nickel for every time the lift wrapped itself around the backstay during a jibe and needed to be manually unfouled. She is sans a vang at present and the twist in the mains'l is impossible to get rid of with the end boom sheeting.
