Thanks to everyone who replied on the centre mainsheet question. I've managed to sort out a bracket for the mainsheet jammer and found a boom slide to attach the centre boom block.

I'm now wondering if I should use a rope bridle across the top of the transom, and remove the traveller altogether? I could use 2 attachments at the ends and a length of dyneema (knotted in the midle), and adjust it so the mainsheet is almost block-to-block when sheeted in. I'm thinking this may help me to keep a good sheeting angle, relying on the kicker instead for mainsail leech tension? The added advantage is that the traveller car really needs replacing and I'm not keen to spend on it if I don't need to...

As usual, any suggestions very much appreciated.
