[Rhodes22-list] Boom Rigging Question

[Mike]

It didn't make any sense to me either and the more I thought about it, the more I think the shop just rigged it wrong.The forward (black) line on the boom car would make more sense running through the holes in the furler in the mast, but I've got to order a new car before I can mess with it.

I don't think there is any reason why the topping lift should go anywhere
near the boom carriage.  I have experience with two boats and it just runs
from the boom end to top of mast, back down to a turning block on the cabin
top, then to a cam cleat near the back edge of the cabin top.
