Not so fast ....

Study that diagram closely on how to weave/thread the mainsheet line .... now, if you rotate the single block attached to the camcleat 90*, so that it is orientated ACROSS the axis of the triple and quad blocks, there is a way to weave/thread the mainsheat line w/ no crosses .... so it will operate cleanly ...

Can you fiqure it out??? (Hint: At one point, you will need to thread the mainsheat from the extreme outboard sheave on the Quad Block, down and through the Single Block, and then back up to the other outboard sheave on the Quad Block ...)

Try it ... it works really well, but you need to actually see it/play with-it ... to apprieciate how it works

Note: It works best if the Single Block is the same size sheave as the Triple and Quad Block's sheaves ....
