Is there a Hull ID# anywhere on the boat? That will help alot. Look on the transoms, rear deck area, etc.

Either the boom is to low, or the mast to tall...

Thats not rigged correctly and the decks would be swept clear in a gybe. A lot of cats that size have a downhaul attached to the boom that slides inside the mast track so the boom goes up and down the mast with the base of the sail.

But does anyone know what that cat is? I don't think he was looking for critical rigging advice.

Just looking at the photo and was wondering where you are located. Looks like the mountains of West Va.

Not sure, but the insignia on the sail looks hauntingly like something found in "The Davinci Code" Looks like you have a good mystery to solve....

Yes, we are missing the pin in the mast step (which is why I am holding the mast in place), and can not fully tension the halyard.

Nope, the beautiful hills of Central New York.

Judging by the picture I don't think you need the mast step pin anymore.

That gave me the idea to search through the sail inginia guides, but alas, no matches.

How did you acquire it? It may even be a home build.

Friend of a Friend was giving it away. Unless I can ID it, I might be home-building the missing pieces (mast step)
