The crew of Jibsea modifies their boat’s boom and bimini structure to accommodate a future full cockpit enclosure. To reduce windage and improve ergonomics, they shorten the boom by seven inches, requiring new cutouts for the gooseneck, sheets, and blocks.0:52 They use an aluminum-cutting wax lubricant to ensure clean cuts on the metal.3:17 Moving the boom forward improves the lead angle for the mainsheet and prevents the boom brake from chafing on the solar panels or hitting the hatches.6:38 The boom vang pin is moved up one eye to increase spring tension, providing better support for the boom.6:43 Additionally, the crew installs a new ScanStrut radar mount on the bimini, using nylon washers to isolate the stainless steel hardware from the aluminum structure.7:56 After re-rigging the mainsail and outhaul, they confirm the sail tension remains within the track's adjustment range.11:48 The modifications successfully clear the cockpit space and provide a foundation for upcoming canvas work. Precise measurement and matching existing geometry allow for significant structural changes without requiring major hardware replacements.
