[quote=MN3][quote=dartsailors][quote=MN3]you can adjust (well, i can ...) the sheeting angle of the main blocks so it's just right ... easy to cleat easy to uncleat - problem with that is ... sheeting angles can be very different on and off the wireEdited by MN3 on Aug 06, 2018 - 02:37 PM. [/quote]
I can adjust mine as well, but I think they are set at the highest angle for use while on the trapeze. I've left them there because that angle requires me to lift up to cleat, avoiding the main sheet getting cleatted unexpectedly.[/quote]
hmmmm.
typically being on the wire results in a lower sheeting angle (as you should be sitting about deck level vs sitting on it, and your hand/arm 1' above the deck | give or take)
If you are comfortable un-cleatted, and since you don't have an enormous sail to hold... it's not a big deal at all
I think it is certainly much better to err in the side of safety (harder to cleat, easier to uncleat)[/quote]
