I bought a Severne "Metal" wave boom in November.
5th time out, flat water 18kts and a tame catapult.
Never bent a boom before.
What is the point in having a fancy 'lockjaw' clamp at the end that apparently has a warranty if the bit that it holds on to appears to be as strong as chocolate.
Not again, back to Chinook which has withstood far harsher punishment
