ABSTRACT:
A gooseneck for rigidly but detachably attaching the boom of a sail-powered vehicle to the mast. The gooseneck includes a mast collar which in the unassembled condition is freely slideable over the mast. A boom yoke receives the forward ends of the boom spars. The yoke is vertically rotatable about a fulcrum provided in the mast collar. Co-operating surfaces in the collar and boom yoke lock the yoke to the collar and circumferentially compress the collar onto the mast as the boom is lowered to a horizontal attitude, thus firmly locking the mast collar, and the boom yoke carried thereby, to the mast.
