no boom yet, but I did add reef points, so I have to come up with one soon. Other thing I cam e across in rehabbing...Nearly lost the rig because the U-bolt for the bridle on the port side off the boat sheered off one side (rust, the bolt is from 1985) and began pulling out. Thankfully got the boat home without dropping the rig, but to all S23 owners who have kept there boat in salt water, I would consider replacing those bad boys..
