Cutter Rigs Vs. Sloop Rigs
I think that you are right that 6'' is way too much. I have been doing some number crunching and found that if I shortened the bowsprit to 2'' and attached the forstay to the masthead the sq feet of the for-triangle would be 152'' with the main area 151''. The orginal square footage is 117 sq feet. Would not the helm be more balenced with the modifiacation then without?
