Todd,
      Very interesting, but now where does the line attach to the boom?

Anybody,
	Does anybody have the part number for the Dwyer mast base line
organizer?  They don't put all their products on line nor put out a
current catalog. 

                   Ed K

Ed and Saroj,

    Here is (hopefully) a pic of an R22 in my area.  This owner also had
a bail on the bottom of his mast using the mast bolt for the vang set
up.  I am unsure what he or she does when it is time to raise the
pop-top though.
