Spare Mast?
I was wondering if anything knew of a spare mast laying around or a boat that may be beyond repair with a decent rig. We had a lower stay break in some big breeze and the mast broke in half at the spreaders. Please let me know if anyone is aware of something. Thanks!

Spinnaker Launching
My dad has recently purchased #107. After sailing it the last few months, we have noticed that our spinnaker sets always seem to be terrible. I sailed 7.9s when I was in Florida a few times and never seemed to remember the problem. We launched the chute out of the companionway from a bag that was ha...
