Hi Chuck.
For my preventers, I have 2 lines with eyes spliced in one end at forward
end of boom. The other end is attached to the back of the boom. Then I have
2 lines going from cockpit forward to standup blocks on the foredeck. These
can be also used for pole downhaul. When I'm not using the pole

The preventer setup describe is exactly what we used on the boat we sailed

were also used for preventer, one on each side. The preventer lines ran
along the boom and were stored at a cleat on the boom near the gooseneck

Chuck, What size is the jib that you are using the barberhauler rig
on? I can't figure how that would work on a genoa with a an LP greater
than 135%.

Haven't figured how to rig a preventer without going forward but I do use my
barberhaulers in winds up to ten or fifteen knots as a preventer. Normally we
rig barberhaulers to pull the genoa clew out and open the slot between the jib
and mainsail. It's a simple rig; about twenty five feet of 5
The first test of the 4:1 mainsheet was a resounding success, it works great in
light/medium air. I still need to grab the 6:1, I can see this being beyond my
strength in heavy air. This brings up a new issue, the preventer. Since what
was my preventer is now my mainsheet, I did not have a preve

I would recommend a 3:1/6:1 arrangement with double line, something like this:

blocks are Garhauer. The special double block, double cam was around $75.
Mine is a 27 ft boat, so the forces are respectively smaller.

4:1 is not enough in heavy air. As you increase the purchase (6:1), you will
have more friction which makes it more difficult to ease the sheet in light
air. Also, as you increase the purchase, you will have a longer sheet, and it
will take longer to sheet
Yes it does,

Joe,
Does your 35-1 have end boom shee
4:1 is not enough in heavy air. As you increase the purchase (6:1), you
will have more friction which makes it more difficult to ease the sheet in
light air. Also, as you increase the purchase, you will have a longer
sheet, and it will take longer to sheet in and out. I have a 4:1 purchase

I had 7:1 purchase with end boom sheeting and ratchet block at the
bridgedeck traveler and that was bearly enough at above 15 kts apparent on
my 35mKII. She had a higher than normal aspect ratio mainsail owing to the
slightly less than 12 foot E dimension. I think 4:1 won't be good in
anything but
Joe,
My 35-1 has a 6:1 purchase on a Harken traveller, and I have to pull
reasonable hard to get the boom tight in any kind of breeze. I don't
think a 4:1 would do it. That said, in light airs the 4:1 would be
nice. Maybe you could use 6:1 but drop it to 4:1 in light airs, which,

Joe,
Does your 35-1 have end boom sheeting?

Hey Joe,
IMHO, Four to one may be underpowered for heavier wind, unless you take it to a
winch. Not sure if your traveller is mid boom or end of boom.
The system on our 34R is end of boom and we have 5 to 1 course and 20 to 1 fine
and the higher ratio is needed when she's powered up which is an
