Last year I bought T-track w/ jib leads for my '72 O'Day 22. Previously the boat only used the working jib and a stationary block installed at the factory for the jib sheets. I now have a 135 on a CDI and of course the existing blocks are useless. The T-Track is 4'. Question - how do I determine exactly where to install it in relation to the winches? Or does anyone have pics of that would help me? Thanks, I've lost sleep over this. Any other install tips appreciated.

I recall reading in a book that the center of the T track should be on an imaginary line extending from the clew that originates along the miter seam of the jib. Your track should extend ahead and behind this position equal amounts.
