I constructed tabernacle a few years ago. i could post some pictures if i can figure out how. i removed gooseneck and added jaws to boom so i could adjust height of boom. i was constrained by height of garage so tabernacle was as close to deck as possible. it works great. i keep boat rigged in garage and can launch and rig in just 10 minutes! you can see a pic of my boat under "my wooden boat" on main page of woodenboat. search under id 3092. i just listed it today!
