[quote=texastuma]I use have a 4:1 line tensioning system without a cleat. I just tie it back on itself each time. I tie the jib halyard tail to the bottom of the halyard and remove it when I sail. No big deal, takes about 10 seconds. The cleat is clever, but I think a bit overkill. 3/16" line works very well in the V-cleats. The cleat takes up a lot of space and it becomes bulky when you furl the jib. I can see making a 3:1 easily with the cleat idea. It is not like there is a lot of load or that you will be adjusting while under sail. I would suggest keeping it simple.[/quote]
