So first of all, I'm stealing Lee Montes' thunder with this, by posting his youtube video about it, sorry Lee, I love your channel, hey fish folks, go subscribe to Lee's youtube channel!
But this is great. I find it easier to hold onto my Hobie's mainsheet than the Sunfish, but the Hobie has a 6:1 block (my H17 had an 8:1 block as I recall). So this is something I'm definitely changing.
I thought about changing the whole block system so the mainsheet comes off the traveler. OK, not legal for racing, but other than that, is there a reason not to? I'm still learning a lot about sailing Sunfishys.
