Has anyone installed an inner jib track?
Currently it is on the bulwarks teak trim. It seems with an inner genoa track, you will be able to bring in the geona more to match the main.

Thanks

don't think I'd do it. The deck probably isn't designed for the loads. I've never had a problem trimming the genny with the sheet blocks in the right position...

I don't think I would either but haven't had the concern as of yet. If I did it would have substantial backing plates.

It is certainly doable. However, the benefit is usually more for a jib than a genoa. Running the lines inside the shrouds wipes out the advantage for a genoa, in my opinion. However, maybe you have less of a problem on a bigger boat.
