Stephen,
Can you explain how this is working:
How do you get the resultant (multi purchased) line from under the tramp to the luffeye so it is not impeded as the mast rotates (or does it come up thru the mast ball ?)
Alot of boat lead the jib sheet to the mainbeam (The forward one) I however lead them to the rearbeam. See my diagrams.
When honking I can't go all the forward to the mainbeam to get the jib sheet without pressing the bow down, indeed. A compromise is to first lead the sheet to the sidestays and then forward again. I tried that but personally didn't like it.

What's the Blue line that runs from the sidestay into the front beam end cap?

AND, do you find that you get forward tension on the crew trap line with it bungied into the Front Beam?
