Jim, check out Harken One design rigging plans at their site, use a boat of similar size ( dinghy’s) as they have excellent diagrams and solutions that are tested. Good luck On Mon, Mar 21, 2022 at 9:33 AM Jim Sadler <jimsadler@jascopacific.com> wrote:
Thanks Skipper I just might replace the jamb cleat with a sheeve and return the line to the jamb cleat on the boom . “The real test is at sea”. Capt. Ron Capt Jim

Jim.
IMO hard to adjust as when not close hauled can't reach the end of the boom ad it is outboard of the boat. Even when close hauled you are reaching aft, M15 has a long boom, to hand the line.
The standard setup is cheek block at the on the port side of the boom right at the end. Leads the line forward and you can put in a cascade to make adjustment easy. The end of the line needs to be forward of the middle of the boom so you can adjust even when on a reach or down wind.
Somewhere I have pictures. If needed let me know and I'll 'go looking' for the images.
