A scarf jointed pair 2 x 4 x 18' with a double sided lap reinforcement on the center 4'. The foil should be lashed on top to the 2" side. Carry from roughly the mid point of each 2 x 4.

How in hell do you move a floppy 36' long piece of aluminum without bending it and ruining it in the process? Once I get it strapped to the mast, it'll probably be OK. Getting it on the boat without kinking the foil is going to be a problem. Lee Scott '87 C-27 #6350 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
