1. Thanks for the inputs on plastic bags. I will NOT resume my practice of decades ago; bags ashore and to the dump. 2. My weak and aching back likes ease and versatility. I can secure my topping lift at BOTH the base of the mast and the end of the boom via a bit longer line and jam cleats. I also lead my lazy jacks (port side only) from the topping lift to the boom; sewed to the topping lift, bronze hooks to eye straps on the boom, hooked to the end of the boom when I install the cockpit cover.
