You are correct Ian... gallows it is. The problem with moving the blocks forward of the gallows in that they would be in the cockpit cluttering a nice open space There is a combing all the way around forming the cockpit and the gallows are mounted at the aft end of the combing..... adding blocks there would keep me from laying down/ sleeping there and attaching a "awning" from the dodger to the gallows. There is also the problem with mounting a center block on the deck, as the tiller gets in the way of mounting anything on the center line. Do you think that without the middle block missing in the system the sheeting angle is compromised?.....The blocks would be about 2 feet apart about a1.5 feet from the aft end of the boat. I single hand most of the time, or at least sail with a crew without a clue!... i can always use the windward winch if 4 to1 is not enough. If this helps at all here is a link to my boat in a previous sale http://tinyurl.com/l33db
