We have a turning block for the foreguy foreward of the anchor locker and then (fair) leads back to the clutches on the starboard side of the companionway. 2:1 doesn't seem to be necessary as long as you have someone in the pit position, and we don't foul the cabin top at all. If it does, why not add some stainless tape to save chafing?
