Nice one, well down on the wire.
What's interesting is how much room there is under the boom, blimey how rigs are currently raked there's not that much gap even with a short leech version.

I sailed an older boat with a tin rig not long ago.  Much more room, but I still managed to hit my head.  Ali hurts a lot more than carbon!

I wonder if modern merlins ever use the same class logo?

Never seen that style of Merlin's hat logo before on any old photos and certainly not on anything recently even at CVRDA events.

Current class rules specify an isosceles triangle of a specific height and width so guess that the ragged bottom edge would put it out of class. Looks nice though.
