P36 / Mainsheet

« on: August 19, 2024, 10:51:59 PM »

I solo often enough that scrambling forward to trim the mainsail is painful.  I want to route the mainsheet aft of my jib sheet 48 winch and install another lewmar 30.  If I use a combination of cheek blocks bulls eyes and a clutch, would I be able to overcome the issue of coming off the cabin deck and aft in an efficient and effective manner?  I’ve been checking around and haven’t seen any posts.

Hull #36 here, I put a 45# CQR on the roller and 100’ of chain in the locker and I’m bow heavy as well.  I would like to install a windless but not sure how to balance the boat.

I sail in an area with heavy boat and ferry traffic along with strong tides. “RiskyBuisness” P-36 Handles it with ease.  She is very strong, responsive and seaworthy. 

Love her.

Hello
New to sailing.

Bought an Ensign in the spring this year.  Loved it so much I bought a 36-2 which was sold “as is” and am still sailing as of December 4, 2022.  Look forward to discussing and sharing thoughts insights.  She needs work, but what doesn’t.

Cheers,
