My mainsheet runs through a rope-clutch on the cabin top...not sure I'd use single braid for that, I'd worry about chafe, and the falttening of the line seems like it would make for less purchase. My jib sheets cleat after the winch, so no slippage or extraordinary chafe problems there. I'm not a racer, so I don't worry about a little more stretch in the sheets...softens the gusts a little, and absorbs a little of the shock to the gear in a gybe. I much prefer the Regatta braid I curently use for the jib sheets to the Stay-set that I used to have on there. 5:00 on a Friday here in Washington...time to go down to the boat for a nice cold beer!
