[Public-List] Mainsail Outhaul

[Bobby]

Hey Yall,
   
  Currently, my outhaul consists of a line running from the clew around a single block at the end of the boom then forward to a cleat on the boom.  With this configuration, I don't seem to get much purchase and I'm not able to really get the foot tight.  
   
  I was thinking about putting in the 4:1 configuration indicated at on this link: http://www.harken.com/rigtips/outhaul.php
   
  Any suggestions?
   
  Thanks,
  Bobby
