Thanks to everyone who passed on their knowledge concerning the amount of
tension on the down haul and "how high the boom" should ride in the mast slot.

For now I'll try eliminating the horizontal lines on the main while not
creating any vertical ones and will definitely try "lowering the boom" enough
to clear the cabin top under differing wind conditions.

I am finally getting comfortable enough to try "puttering with the potter."
Now if the weather would only cooperate!

Thanks, Gang!
