An adjustable sailboard boom handle apparatus for use with a board sailor having an elongated flat buoyant board with a mast that carries a sail. The mast is movably attached to the board's center portion. A transverse hand held boom attaches to the mast and generally encircles the sail providing a surface for gripping by the sailor. A pair of fore/aft sleeve-like attachments are affixable to and spaced apart in fore/aft positions along the boom. A handle assembly is attached to the pair of attachments and extends therebetween, providing a portion which is spaced from the boom generally between the attachments. The handle assembly provides a gripping surface spaced from the boom during use, the handle assembly providing a surface for gripping with a hand of the user that is annularly oriented to the longitudinal center line of the boom between attachments.
