Michael: The factory main sheet set up helps with the sail shape especially sailing downwind. I haven't noticed any difficulties releasing the main sheet in a blow. ??? Bill Larson, M17 "JoEllen"

Reciently, sailing in 25 to 30 mph winds, several times I had a difficult time releasing my main sheet. Can someone explain the advantage of having the factory setup over a conventional stern, end of boom setup. After my last sailing experiance I'm considering changing my main sheet location. Is there any good reason I shouldn't??
