Wooden pole, length approximately 10 feet, circumference, approximately 5 1/4 inches; hole through pole approximately 1 1/2 inches from end, two fixtures for attaching sail, one 12 inches from end and the other 56 inches from end of boom.

Each end has a hole in it so that rope can be used to close off the opening and keep the boom in place on the mast.
