Hayrack boom option A Sparcraft Masts option that allows the mast and stack pack to consume less vertical space. This one is another upgrade and another one we will have on Mira. We originally thought about the in-boom furling option, but when this option was added, we changed our minds. Advantages: Allows the boom to be lowered (and with changes to how the spinnaker halyard exits) the mast can get below 65’ from the water (ICW bridge compliant) with no change to sail area Wider sail flaking area which makes putting the sail away easier This also allows the lazy jacks to attach further outboard on the boom, making snagging battens while hoisting way less likely Disadvantages It cost more. Way less than the inboom furling system, but still about a $4k upgrade
