I am still playing with this in my head and trying to work out the feasibility. Remember that I will be sailing the boat by myself the vast majority of the time. Everybody says that the boat sails like a big dinghy, so why not set it up like one?
Has anyone ever set up a bank of cam cleats in front of the primary winches to control the out haul, cunningham, vang, and potentially the barber haul/twing and genoa track adjustment line?
I envision having the out haul, cunningham and vang split over the cabin top and then adjustable from either side of the cockpit.
The genoa car adjuster and barber hauler would cross the cockpit. I am already setting up the genoa sheets to be properly set up to trim from the high side and they will be crossing the cockpit so now I would have 3 lines neatly crossing the cockpit in an X.
Am I nuts?
