If you go with a ronstan track.. You can extend it a bit beyond the optimal 50 cm from the midline position. insert a pin in track to stop the car at 50 mm. When you are overpowered. pull the pin and let the jib car go outboard a bit.

If you start out over powered you can also change the sheeting point on the jib clew using the several holes rovideed in the clew board.

You can twist the jib off this way.

If you bury you jib sheets into the front beam... make sure you give yourself enough of a tail in there so that you can pull them out and to the back of the boat if needed... It won't be an option to go forward to the front beam and trim them in a blow down wind.

The tough part to singlehanding the T is the chute is Really powerful.... at 8 to 9 knotts... Its all you can do to hang on to it with one arm. Constant trimming ... leads to short sails!
