ABSTRACT:
A boom support for supporting a sailboat boom on all sailing angles. The boom support, which is pivotally attached to the lower portion of the mast below the boom, includes two resiliently flexible rods extending from the mast attachment upwardly and outwardly to the boom. A flexible strip of webbing between the two rods counteracts the boom weight and is held in place by a line attached to the gooseneck. The boom is free to lift clear of the boom support.
