Hey David,
Leverage. The 34/36 has the traveller located on the cabintop at about 45% E
while the 37/40 traveller position is further back on the bridge deck, probably
at 75% or 80% E so it's mainsheet has much more leverage on the sail.
On my 34R, I located the traveller just in front of the
need to pull a bit on the sheet for the can cleat to
release).

Dave, look at the photos again. Looks like 3:1, with 4:1 trim on the
standing end tail. I make that 12:1.

Hi Josh- It was Marek’s 3:1/6:1 setup I was referring to. I think we discussed
earlier that your setup looks nice, does not work as well with the traveller on
the cabin top with limited space between the boom and traveller. Dave

Dave,
If you are referring to my setup then I have 3:1 on the course adjust at
the cabin top winch and jammer. Then I have the 4:1 which pulls on the end
of the 3:1 at the traveller. The combined effect is 12:1. That's how it
works and allows hand trimming of the mainsheet.

On Thu, No
I am surprised that this setup works well for you and want to figure out why.
I have the double-ended setup on my main that Chuck describes except I have 5:1
at the traveller/cam cleat and the other end led forward and then back to a
stopper and cabin top winch. I like the setup so that I can
Very nice!

Some of the questions that come up on the list are such repeats and are
easier to explain with videos than with pictures or words... Yes I have a
few videos.
Those are standard garhauer components but for the bigger one I removed the

Thanks, Josh!! Really nice setup and exactly what I was looking for! I
assume those are standard Garhauer blocks? You must have quite a YouTube

Chuck,
I have a different boat, but I faced a similar dilemma a few years ago. On my
boat the arrangement was a 4:1 at the traveller and the sheet went along the
boom to the mast and back to a winch.
I changed it to a 3:1/6:1 arrangement with control only at the traveller. This
allows for a qu
