System and method for reducing or eliminating sailboat heeling

a system and method of reducing or eliminating sailboat heeling comprising:

• a sailboat with a hull and deck within which is integrated a support cross member,
• a housing attached to the cross member comprising a pivot ball and retainer ring,
• a mast support tube comprising a tube with a ball socket joint on one end that fits the pivot ball of the housing,
• a thrust wear button that fits inside the mast support tube upon which the mast can sit and rotate,
• a tensioning tube that fits over the mast support tube,
• a tensioning plate that is attached to the tensioning tube,
• tensioning devices that attach the tensioning plate to the retainer ring in the housing,
• a tensioning adjustor that can raise or lower the tensioning plate,
• a mast that is self stayed so that it can tilt freely with the mast support tube,
• a mast that is reinforced at the base to prevent it from bending between the bridged part of the mast and the mast support tube,
• a mast that has wear collars and a wear tube at the base that allows it to turn freely in the mast support tube,
• a sail management system that, excepting a point of sail sheet, frees the sail and boom of all lines to the deck that would hinder the tilting of the mast independently of the hull and deck,
• a sail that is cut upward away from the mast comprising a sleeve that holds a doubled line that is the boom vang and a sail clew at the outer end of the boom vang sleeve,
• a boom vang that is a line doubled in the boom vang sleeve of the sail allowing a boom vang loop to extend out of the sleeve just below the sail clew.
