What is the best way to secure the boom to the mast on a windsurfer?

Question

i just bought a used windsurfer and there were no directions with it so i need to know how to secure the boom to the mast, it keeps coming loose.

Answer 1

Most modern booms have a clamping mechanism to secure it to the mast.  If there is no clamp, you may have to secure it with a line or rope.  I have an old one that I have to do that to.  If you have any shops in your area, you might want to take your boom to them and have them show you how to secure it.  You can always get a newer boom.
