My boat is a 2009 now in it's second season of sail, so the wireing  
layout should include all of stan's current ideas.  Went out in a  
steady 10kt breeze today and chased after an aerlion 28.  She had the  
best of me until the wind stiffened and she had to take down her jib  
while I simply adjusted the furling and lowered the boom.
