I take it this is the reason for not letting the boom touch the shrouds

And the same reason for checking your rig tension before you go afloat!

look at the sideways bend in the mast, the jib is close at the top and bottom but not in the centre |

Could be not enough rig tension - or more likely rigpanting in a mega gust. When the mast bends the compression shortens the length the jib luff is stretched over - so saggy luff is result of bend not vice-versa. L2K prone to sideaways bend especially with poweful kicker applied. Matt |

That's kicker induced. It needs lowers. |
