[C320-list] Outhaul cam cleat or rope clutch?

[Doug Treff]

Tim,

Maybe I'm missing something here, but doesn't your boom already have an
outhaul rig for the conventional main? Is there some issue with using
that? Having never rigged a loose-footed main, maybe I just don't
understand the issue here. Mine is cleated on the cabin-top via a jam
cleat. Maybe the PO made some changes on my boat?
