Hi there!
As a frequent single-hander, I am constantly trying to figure out a way to run my mainsheet to the cockpit. I have the Edson wheel replacement and the self-tailing jib winches are easily accessible from it. The mainsheet and main halyard are both run to the starboard cabin top winch which is out of reach from the helm.
Has anyone done this successfully? I have to say that it's not terribly difficult to manually trim the main on this boat, but at times it would be nice to have access to the winch, and to at least secure the mainsheet somewhere aft to be able to switch to trimming the jib sheet.
Thanks!
