Final Pig stick and WCTSS (West Coast Trailer Sailing Squadron burgee. Will try to find detail photos.

EP Carry electric motor was featured in a Off Center Harbor video. It looks like a great motor for small sailing crafts. I would call it very expensive but probably worth it. Check it out

I have supported my furled main and mizzen with a holder about the same as yours mounted in the main and mizzen tubes. Since 2007 I have had no sail damage since 2007, however I put a piece of carpet in the curved section slightly wider than the board thickness. Also, I always tied the sails tightly to the deck so they have very little movement if any. Whenever the boat is home I release the hold down line pressure. You might try that. It has worked for me.

Alan, Thank you so much for your recap. I enjoyed it thoroughly. dale Lively CS 17

Alan, Not sure what this means, but here is copy of screen I got when I tried to go to sailboats and clicked on 17'. I always use Firefox.
