Mark, I dont have the cracks in front of the dagger wells. All is well there. I am considering the standard jib for now in the beginning. I may actually wait to install the spin and just get used to the way the boat feels and handles at first. However any mods that need to be done for the spin will be done now so i dont have to do anything twice.
I like the idea of a carbon tube but that doesnt sound cheap. Do you have any info on these tubes? I do have a extra set of crossbars if that helps? I read earlier that Hmurphy used a spare cross bar cut into pieces inside his existing beams.
There is a local guy that has his jib sheeted to the tramp and im supposed to be getting pictures of his set-up.
