Thanks for the update. I'm just now being confronted with the same issue converting my Nacra 5.0. For me, the CL257 needs to be positioned relative to the old pivmatic hinge pin such that the shackle/strap placed there as a line keeper will engage my bowline and prevent line slack (rudder up position) and potential
line jam. Film at 11.

I saw this setup on an Astus 16.5 trimaran. Someone drilled the CL257 and put a piece of 1/8" shock cord across the line as a keeper. I don't think that would work well for me, but might for other folks.
