In Response To: N 16 for sail (TiminMinnesota)

My '73 Newport 16 has a loose footed main. They were quite common based on some email inquiries I made on this forum a couple of years ago. I also discovered in that exchange that there is/was some considerable variation in boom length among these boats. I just ordered a new main from Air Force that's loose footed and has a single big reef in it.
