I am mulling over options for better furling control - and some of them involve a cheek block on the xbar. In the interest of not drilling any more holes in the xbar, has anybody found a cheek block whose mounting hole spacing is the same as the Harken Mico Cam-Matic cleats already mounted on the xBar? The mounting hole distance in question seems to be 27mm (1 1/16"). |

I use the Harken 29c, it's really close but you need to elongate the holes in the block, I used an 1/8" drill bit and drill to do so.... |

That's what I was trolling for...Looks like Harken=30mm and existing holes = 27mm.... so you elongated one of the Harken holes by 3mm...? Or did you elongate each hole about 1.5mm? |

A little on both but more on the hole that's not in the middle of the pulley |
