On the Dwyer page http://www.csiworld.com/dwyer
they list an outhaul caps for various size booms.
I don't have one but it's on my "get someday" list.
I think the P15 boom is 1.5" but I wouldn't bet more
than a beer on that!

Over the weekend Melissa and I installed the Spinlock PX
cleats, cheek blocks (as deck organizers) and a double
block at the mast base. We now have both halyards going
back to the cockpit. Both halyards now run down the cabin
top (one on each side of the handrail). This seems to work
well during our "yard sail" hopefully we will be out soon
to try it on the water. We used some heavy duty masking
tape to hold the blocks in place while we made sure that
all lines ran fair and angles looked good.

BTW: The P15 mast seems really easy to get up after
messing with the mast for the S2!
