blokart performance down-haul

[GeoffS]

I really liked the way Scott Young rigged his downhaul at Red Lake and Ivanpah this spring:

When I got home I started working on my own version and pretty soon I'd made a bunch of parts...
Somehow it all snow-balled into a side-line business: http://performancesailingproducts.co...s_blokart.html

I have mounts to attach cam-cleats to the blokart side-tube and steering:

I'm just about done with the design of a "turn key" 6:1 cascade down-haul system that I plan to sell for $130 and a "budget" 6:1 triple-block system (like the BIL "ultra2") for about $80.

If you're interested in any of this stuff, send me a note: geoff@PerformanceSailingProducts.com

Here's a short video tour of the latest iteration of the cascade down-haul system.
I ended up with two "budget" triple-block systems, one with the cleat on the block, and one with the cleat on the side-tube.
