PS 
If your "trimmer" and "grinder" is not a single person you are 
defintivly NOT rigged/crewed for the 2000's. The location of my 
primary winches are one of the few things I have not changed since 
1976. Bruce Kirby got that one right. We do have cabin top primary 
winches for cross sheeting but they are rearly used. Mainly since it 
is difficult to see the genoa telltales from the high side of the 
boat.
