Marek,
That's actually my main halyard at the aft end of the boom, (in the
photo it's a messenger as I remove my halyards for the winter), but
whenever the main's down I put the halyard on the boom end and tension
it a little to help carry the weight. When the boom kicker is carrying
the entire weight it bends pretty well.

Neil,
I noticed that you have a Boomkicker (and the topping lift). The
Boomkicker looks perfectly straight. I always thought that it should
be bent upwards a bit to support the boom.

Jim,
I bought the boat eight years ago, came with that boom. I don't know
if it's the original, it may not be as I think it's a little longer
than some other 35-1's. My understanding is the early boats had
roller reefing with round booms, but I don't know if the factory
changed in later years to the flat sided boom with slab reefing.
