Carbon PP OVAL Monocoque Wide Tail
An evolution of the successful carbon monocoque range now upgraded using the superior, more reliable pre-preg layup construction method. Regular-shape outline for those that prefer the traditional racing stance . An updated, longer boom head delivers extra direct contact and added stiffness at the boom/mast connection point to give unparalleled feedback from the rig. The wider tails fit deeper modern sail profiles without distorting the foil. The 29mm Standard Diameter Grip (SDG) 'oversize' models deliver added stiffness for XL sails, and feature integrated pulleys to accommodate adjustable outhauls.

FAQ
- How do Unifiber measure boom diameter thickness?
- Unifiber measure their quoted tube diameter – not including the EVA grip - in the centre of the harness line area. This is because the grip thickness can vary over time and also because some models feature a tapering of thickness over the boom length.
- What does 1 Year Unconditional + 1 Year Conditional warranty cover?
- Warranty is valid 2 years after date of purchase. When making a warranty claim in the first year the product is unconditionally warranted. When making a warranty claim in the 2nd year the product must have clearly suffered from a manufacturer error.
- Can I use a boom fully extended?
- Yes, both Unifiber aluminium and carbon booms can be fully extended. In both construction options there is no increased risk of breaking the boom as well the booms stiffness will remain at an acceptable level.
- How tight should I screw on the performance bolts?
- In most cases, the perfect tension is when the spacers just touch the boomhead's plastic on both sides. Taking into account manufacturing tolerances, this rule might not always work. Tighten the bolts firmly, but don't overdo it. When you notice any deformation of the plastic around the screw holes, don't tighten any further. Too loose and you might lose the nut while sailing. Too tight and you might damage the boomhead.
