Thanks, Jim. The aft main sheeting was added by the PO because he like to fiddle with trim and didn't want to be constantly leaving the helm to do it. It's fine with me and is something I'm used to coming from my 25D. He used a Garhauer 2 speed block and traveler to set it up. He also extended the end of boom several inches to maintain standing room at the helm.

Well, I have to say, S/V Toccata is a real beauty. You have done well my friend. Perhaps someday she will find her way to South Florida and S/V Toccata can meet S/V Bali Ha'i. :D
Fair winds,

Thanks, Robert. I'm sure Toccata and Bali Hai will be the best of friends. :D
