Our main is to port and jib to starboard...
Mine are both to port (internal halyards)
Scotty
Ours are internal also...the spinnaker halyard is on
the
starboard side
also.....
Mine's the same Katy (main to port, jib on starboard),
including the
spin halyard! Maybe it's just Canadian and French
sloops,
what about
yours Dave?
I only have one winch. All lines led to cockpit,
through
clutches, to that winch.
Scotty
Where's that winch located? Seems like you would have
angle problems...
Port coachroof. They exit the mast, run through a turning
block, then the clutche, and to the winch. Not the best
photos but these show it.

hmmm...I think I'd be installing another wunch on the starboard side and
rerouting some of the snarl....
