I am about to start racing my Ariel once a week in a "just for fun" race night. I am looking for others who mights have some tips! For example, I was told that I might want my fresh water tank to have at least some water in it for ballast - although I'm not buying it. I also need to find my boats rating etc. Can anyone help?

I recently had damage to my pearson ariel. Among many things, I need to replace the "eye" at the end of my boom. I've read the postings, checked out rigrite, but am uncertain which actual part I need to order. The circum of the boom is 9.5" which makes me believe I need parts for the D-Section gooseneck. Can I replace the "eye" only? or do I have to replace that whole piece?
