Like Glen, we continue to use them especially for the #2 & #3. The sheeting angles concern me especially on the port side plus the override problems. We've trained the trimmers to upon releasing, lead the released sheet from the turning block - outboard and forward around the winch after it's cast off. Once it's around the forward side of the winch it's just dropped & forgotten. We've found that for some reason - (Geometry?)as long as it leads around that winch, the sheet hardly ever kinks or jams. But if the trimmer forgets.....Jam City!
