jib boom traveler track design

[JayZ]

Hello All,

I have 42' Alden that I am going to rig for a self tacking jib and at times a staysail when sailing her in cutter configuration.

Ideally, I would like to do something like a hoyt boom that is removable for when I want to set her up for offshore work. For single handed bay sailing I think the Hoyt boom will be great but require a bit more engineering and money.

For now I plan on a simple club foot boom and a jib track.

I have about 48" of cabin width to use when installing the jib travleler track.

Does anyone have any idea about how much curvature I should build in either vertically and/or horizontally?

Thanks for your help in advance.
