Dan, Thanks for the info. I have no interest in racing and clam shell spin boats are too delicate for extensive beach use. My Fox is proof of that. If I had any intention of racing I would have kept the Fox, great boat but too fragile for my uses. I have all the blocks and cams and sheet lines, I need a snuffer set-up and a chute. Super sails can make a chute for approx. $500, an aqua cat mast might work for a pole, $75 and the skunk head or mid-pole snuffer is the most pricey part. Any other ideas or used equipment?
