Pete, There are so-o-o-o many options. If you want leverage, you probably want a fine tune purchase. If you want better control, you probably want end boom sheeting. If you want to double end the mainsheet so you can operate from either side, check out the Admiral's Cup setup in the Harken site. Actually You could leave the traveller on the coachtop, where it is and take the tails to blocks on the gooseneck, out to the side decks through blocks on deck and back to winches at the cockpit.

The race was a looong, gusty tight to beam reach that gave the main trimmer fits. I have cabin top traveler and am thinking of adding a swivel to the traveler cleats. Also, and this is out there a bit, but has anyone ever double end the mainsheet? I currently have 6:1 mainsheet running to a winch on the port side. Other suggestions?
