Screenshot_20210404-103626_Facebook Roll on the 12th , is it the glorious 12th. Notice on this oceanic the position of the mizzen and the boom of the main . Although bigger and heavier that a Catalac 8 or 9 . The position of the mizzen is available on a Catalac to fit a mizzen , it probably would require a bumpkin on the stern but there is definitely room to fit one. Has anyone tried or thought about it. The main mast is quite short and the addition of a bit of extra sail area low down , and / or the possible sail plan options , jib and mizzen ,mail reefed or down riding sail as anchor , even a mizzen stay sail and jib down wind Anyway anybody thought about it

    we to be honest if you look at the mizzen on this oceanic you could haul the boom up with the topping lift in a marina this boat has used the boom to lift the dingy . No dingy and the boom could be topped up no extra length then
