How do you route your furling line?

Teliki came with a regular cleat mounted on the stanchion (the one in front of the starboard winch).

This was a slight PITA as I had to reach forward out of the cockpit to reach it.

It will be a HUGE PITA this year with my half healed leg.

I was thinking of a clam cleat closer to the cockpit but I'm not sure about tangling in the genny sheet?

I was curious what others do?

Thanks,

Chris
