Ok..

Description of what I did.

Halyards - T900 - With mast base blocks (Gui inspired...) I'll need 2 more halyards in phase 2. One for Chute one for Second Jib.

Cunningham, Outhaul, Reef 1, Vang all led to sexy (Gui inspired) mast base blocks and through ....

deck organizers which needed custom fit teak blocks to so that they were mounted flat (deck is curved in that area...I felt like I was fitting a bridge to a violin top.... I used a dremel tool to get the fit right.. took a better part of a day...) lines then led aft to...

Lewmar Line Clutches (now installed in the proper direction) DOH! Yes... i installed them backwards... who'da thunk that the handles would open the wrong way!!

The mainsail controls:
Harken track 1.8m (Longer than stock you can see the overhang)
New 6:1 main sheet blocks with cam cleat
New 4:1 traveler (I went 3/8ths the hardware got stupid expensive for bigger stuff...but I like it...)
New boom kicker.

Everything but line clutches is Harken.

Won the first race after the rebuild... ! I do have issues... (Lessons learned to follow...)
