Spinnaker sheet setup

Hi to all ,
I ll extend the thread “ clutches on jib sheets” form dear user diverphil.
Does anybody has experience on spinnaker sheet setup on similar boat (bv44) . At the moment we fly a small assy with the sheet passing trough the fixed roller block or the genoa sheet car. We are on the process of acquiring a larger so we are considering if this setup will work and we think to move the spinnaker sheet as stern as possible as on the foto . Any ideas or pics with application will be appreciated !

I have used similar set up on both my boats - but old fashioned 8mm double spliced eyes with blocks, looped to the base of the mooring cleat. A dedicated ring plate though bolted to the deck woul be better but difficult to fond a suitable flat space on a Bavaria deck moulding.

? Your solution with the eye from the stern cleat did it had any issues ?

We (J&J Bav 40) use pretty close the Selden "Method 3" sheeting displayed at
https://support.seldenmast.com/files/595-560-E.pdf
Our boat has ready turning blocks mounted on stern corners, but on our previous boat we lashed blocks to stern cleats.
For Asymmetric / cruising chute the setup is quite similar minus the windward guy plus gennaker forward end downhaul which is routed the same way as spinnaker boom downhaul

Great, since we go for assy on top down furler on diy retractable bowsprit , so the tack of the assy will be fixed and will just have to add the blocks turning or low friction ring . All that though in theory …

elias,
use turning blocks on a dynema strop threaded through the aft mooring cleats. then run the sheets up to the halyard winches. At least that is what I do.
Cheers
