Talk:Boomkin

This article (along with many of the sailing articles here) has waaaaaayyyyy too much technical jargon. If I come here to look up the meaning of a term, it is quite frustrating to have to cross-reference six or seven other articles to make sense of the first one. Remember, people who know a lot of sailing terminology are unlikely to be looking up parts of a sailing ship on wikipedia. --Umichcynic (talk) 12:01, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

boomkin is on the stern....
This wikipedia entry is very incorrect. the boomkin is a projection on the rear/stern of the boat, not the bow. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CD1E:B200:1871:739A:322A:9DED (talk) 14:36, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
