I have it installed and I like it. When sailing close to the wind singlehanded, it makes life a lot easier. If you have a bimini top it probably wont work for you though.

I went to Harken and ordered the pivot block and built my own based on current block and tackle.

I like it, it keeps the helmsman doing what he needs to do while racing and that is drive the boat. The rest of the crew can trim the sails.

I made up my own (per the drawing in the cd book) I already had all the parts. since all the boats i had before the c25 had that setup it wasnt anything new for me to get used to. But I use mine both ways. depends on what im doing. I had got used to the original c25 setup and i dont really mind it all that much
