I agree with Jake. Having suffered for years with the ARC forward option with sheet runing through several blocks, the simplest most direct option is the best. When you relaese the tension, regardless of the wind pressure, you want to see the traveler move. I feel like the Hobie set up is best. Maybe a little tweak with a pig tail on the end at the beam in order to get you dead center or beyond.......

All the best,
