I really liked this idea on Ian Cadwallader’s new P&B Fifteen at the Show this year.
They have taken the jib turret and carved a panel out – can you see what I mean in this photo? So now, when inevitably the cleats have to come off for maintenance, the turret can stay in place. It also means a somewhat neater, hidden way to finish off any control lines and blocks in that area. See the way that a black control line finishes off just on the left? Very good….. Ought to be standard!!
