How do you determine the height of a mast?
You can determine the height of a mast by using the tangent. Measure the distance from the base, and the angle of elevation of the top of the mast as observed from that distance. The tangent is y over x, so substitute x for the distance from the base and y for the height of the mast. Solve from there. For instance, if the angle is 60 degrees and the x distance is 25 feet, then... tan (60) = y / 25 25 tan (60) = y y = 43.3

Ketches are very common among long distance sailors, since the larger sail area gives you a better balance. Also a ketch allows you to drop your mainsail in sudden wind gusts and sail only with your jib and mizzen set.
