Jazz:
with your mainsheet setup use a tiller extender and sit as far forward as possible. you may want to consider getting a longer tiller (John a JOWoodworks can make you a good one).
put your ground tackle in the port cockpit locker, and forward on the locker floor.

It is a galley model and if I sit aft of the traveller I'm swimming! Lol...
There's no traveller really, the mainsheet goes from corner to boom to corner on the transom. Not the best but it keeps the cockpit nice and open.

i forget ... is your M17 a galley model Jazzy?
don't sit near the transom ... sit just aft of the mainsheet traveler.
