Thanks, I think I got it. I didn't see the short arms going to the rail. That makes sense now.

I think I may go with a traditional setup. The forces involved in high winds must be significant, especially if the wind generator threw a blade in a storm. (Not sure if that happens ever.) If that were to happen I'd rather that some bolts break off than have the whole boat rattled apart.
