      is anyone using a boom brake, which model? Or how do you have your preventer rigged, to the bow?

      My method is a line tied to each side of the aft most bail on the boom covered with 2ft of left over water line tubing to prevent it from getting caught up in the blocks.
      These are lead forward to a blocks port and starboard set all the way forward on the genoa track (not optimal, but it works) then back to the cockpit and cleated off as needed.
