I have just purchased a mc venture 23. I am having problems with too many lines on my mast that can get tangled. How would you run your lines from your sails to the cockpit so they do not get tangled and they still are easy to use. I would like to get this boat rigged so I can set sails from the cockpit and leave the sails on the boat when it is tied in the marina. An help would be greatly appreciated. I would like to know what type of pulleys you use and where they can be purchased. I nned to know where they are set on the boat.
