The sheet for my 95% blade trims between the forward lower and upper shrouds. Pics can be seen here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_sb5TfIENvsNll4b3ZwM1B4a28 I use this track until about 22-24 knots. Above that the sheet moves to the toe rail to increase the sheeting angle to reduce heel. Larger sails trim to a genoa track aft of the shrouds. Can be seen in the same Drive folder. One factor in locating genoa and jib tracks is interference from the interior cabinetry. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA
