sailed it for about an hour over the weekend at Rutland (Put hole in Spi on the 2nd lap of the first race and by the time I'd fixed it the 3rd race had started; Woke up this morning feeling awful and could not cope with yotting)

Anyway, now have some pictures of the sail up the stick and new Downhaul set up (16:1)



Full sail shape



Nice and flat:



Mast bends a lot with loads of DH on !



And you can see the block attached to the sail

and now the Downhaul:

The DH is very powerful I can get it all the way down with one hand with ease!

All I did was attach some 4mm D12 to the top of the double blocks each side and then put a loop in the other end so It can pass thru the block on the sail to a bobble at the base of the mast.
