Hi Potter-folk,

My P-19 has a strange genoa track -- it is on the freeboard, below the
rubrail. There are no leads for the jibsheets on the deck. I'm planning on
installing some blocks and tracks on the deck and need info on where to place
them.

Here in San Francisco Bay, our winds range from 18-28 mph on a typical summer
afternoon, and from zip to 15 knots in the winter months.

Where are your blocks (or tracks) for the jib and genoa? Since I'll have a
working (70%) jib, a 110% lapper, and a 150% genoa, I may need three blocks or
two or three tracks.

Thanks
