I have the wheel version. I dont know that I want to put anything else in the cockpit to work around by moving the traveler forward of the wheel. I do like the idea Brandon has about putting a block with cam cleat directly on the traveler. With the righ purchase, you should be able to trim without the winch since you are cutting out the 3 turning blocks . I look forward to hearing how his set up works. Jeff 5641
