[quote=Dogboy]I totally disagree with the comments that double exit blocks run out to the traps are unnecessary on a H18. We have used that configuration for years (probably decades) on the race course. I run a 6:1 system as I don't feel that we need the power of an 8:1 (if my crew can't pull it in all the way, all she needs to do is hand the line to me and I can crank it down the last inch or so). We play the downhaul upwind anytime it's double trap conditions. Spot a puff coming down the course and pull it down an inch or two to keep the boat flat and driving. Lull hits, ease off the main sheet and down haul an inch to keep power in the rig. Virtually all of the racers run a double sided system.
