It should not matter. How it should be depends more on the geometry of the sail and how you attach the tack to the boom and where is your first slider. I cannot imagine 1/2 inch would matter anyway.

Just put the boom back on. The saddle on the mast holds a shaft (1/4 in) with an effective opening of about 3in. My fitting on the boom that slides on that shaft is 2.5in. To compensate, there is a 1/2 in tube that rides on the shaft. I can't remember; does the tube sit on top of the boom piece or does the tube ride on the piece? Does it matter?
