Here is another improvement that became a priority after severely banging up my ankle on the elaborate cam cleat and block arrangement for the center-board. I'm a simple person and all those blocks seemed odd, not to mention painful. So, these last pictures show the new routing of the line used to control the centerboard.
Former location of the port-side cleat (ditto to starboard):
New anchor point using one of the original blocks:
One of the cam cleats relocated to a more convenient location (my opinion only!):
New routing of the center-board control line (old routing in black):
And the resulting, out-of-the-way routing of the line from front block to cam cleat:
Close-up of the new cleat location on the INSIDE of the Barney Post (man, I hope I'm using correct terms here... new guy alert):
... That's it. I sincerely enjoy hearing about and seeing projects from other people; hopefully these shots were interesting.
