KC, I will try to post pictures tonight; don't know how effective it will be because I have slow internet.
Green Lake, so if I understand correctly, in a step by step process, I would take the mainsheet attach it to the becket at the end of the boom, down thread it through the traveler so that when the sheet comes out of the traveler block it is heading towards the stern. (This the part I don't quite understand). Then I go back up to the block where the becket is attached, through it, heading straight down the boom, then through the pulley attached to the boom above the aft end of the centerboard, down through through the pulley attached the centerboard and finely through cam cleat. Correct?
