Joel,
My outhaul runs to a small winch on the cabin top. I have 5/16" line on there now, although 3/8" would work just fine too. The loads aren't too heavy and stretch really isn't an issue. Neither is pulling the line in by hand, as we always use the winch. No blocks in the boom either. With a 4:1 or 5:1 in the boom, the loads might be light enough to use a cam cleat on the cabin top instead. Just a thought.

It currently runs to the front of the boom through 2 sheaves back into the boom and exits the bottom of the boom between the vang and mainsheet where there is a cam cleat. When I replace my clutches I could run it to the base of the mast, through the new line organizer to the clutch. It is the original wire and rope line. I plan to replace it with 3/8 StaySet.
