I bought the Harken system on sale for about $225 a couple of years back, and if I had to do it over again, I would make my own (although the Harken system works fine). It really isn't that complicated and you can use materials of your own choice.
Ok midlifesailor,
thank you for your advise. I was thinking of just doing the loop rope trick with no hardware, other than the ones on the boom, and maybe ties on the mast. I have just downed two bottles of full sail amber bear and I would highly recommend that to anyone.
