[C320-list] Humming noise from boom

Fred,

     I have never noticed the noise while under sail, I have, on occasion, 
noticed a "vibrating type" noise while setting in the slip. I have not been 
able to locate the source, but its sounds like it is coming from the 
rigging.  I will try adjusting some of the spots mentioned by others the 
next time I hear the noise.

Regards,

Jerry

Jerry:

Your right. I could mentally see the symbol on the boom as soon as I saw 
your note.
Any solutions?
Fred
