I think a lot of folks would like to see the pictures. Perhaps someone can put them on a site somewhere and post a link we can all go to. Thanks, AC

After looking at the photo, how do you pull the car to weather? Wouldn't you want something like the J/22 'Brady Block' rig? http://www.usaj22.com/images/boat_layout/865travelercontrol_large.jpg

What's the purpose of the cam cleat on the car? Looks a bit low to be used with mainsheet.

You are right - I am not using the cam cleat not - it was left over from a previous configuration that Didn't work out and I havn't taken it off the car yet.
