Yeah, the only problem there is the loop between end & mid blocks on the boom
which provides a nifty auto-choking feature in gybes. I've sometimes felt this
must have ben a Microsoft design... just kidding. It does give good control and
good leverage.



Remember the Loveday loop?

Not under that name. One of those old-fashioned double ended mainsheets? For a
while those were back in style on the 1/2 Ton and One Tonners and the like.
