Tried this as you suggested - love it ! Feels like skiff style boom sheeting , but w/ all that purchase !!
Paul: How much easier is it to sheet with this setup? I went sailing UNI this last weekend, and I noticed my cleat on the mainsheet needs to be angled further down. I also noticed that a mid tramp cleat would make things a lot easier.

Is it posible you can break it down in another thread on how you went about completing this setup.


Hiya Robi !

I ordered my F16 from AHPC with the mid boom to tramp sheeting (love this for solo sailing as it improves sheeting angle , adds purchase ). You could back engineer this easily enough and i'd do close up pic's if you'd like. I think the diameter or thickness or both diameter and thickness of the boom are larger than Doc's sheeting from the traveller boom (betcha Wouter knows...). The improved feel to which I refered was the re-cored 3mm Dyneema through D12 mantle of the actual mainsheet ...
