In regards to the mainsheet positioning I have found that it is best to attach the boom to the gooseneck and if you use some rope straps around the boom you can judge where the best place to attach them is, as there can be a big difference between the light wind/mast upright position and the Max rake position. This would also be a good time to check out where the Kicker attachment should be sited.
