G'day,
I have made the extension straight, but will be installing an oversize
mast tube in the boat and raking the mast forward by offsetting it in
the bearings. About 5 degrees is what i have drawn, although with the
mast bending aft under leech pressure, it will be less than this when
sailing.
regards,
Rob
