Looks like a lovely boat Jason. Getting the tiller round the mizzen on a canoe yawl is always a thing but this arrangement looked really 'right'. On first obs, all seems pretty good; only comment is whether all that purchase on the mainsheet is really needed? True its an 18+ ft boat but it is nearly end of boom sheeted but if it was me I'd try reducing it bit by bit, coz it should be pulling 'in' rather than 'down' since the downhaul does the work of a vang and sorts out the sail twist. ruclips.net/video/8uQW2NOw1JU/видео.html
Absolutely Love that tiller Jason!! 👍
Yeah isn't that something. It allows the mast to be on the centre-line where it should be...
If that was Peter Sibley's boat (and no doubt it was), then the standard of workmanship was exceptional.

Thanks Tom, hopefully Damian sees your comments here and plays around with it.
