1: do not move the reef sheave forward. End of the boom is better. the lead is fair becasue the deadend goes around the boom, then through the clew, then on to the boom end as and outhaul.
2: as said before. the trysail IS NOT sheeted to the boom, but straight to the deck. And really, on a 20' sloop a trysail is probably not needed, a triple reefed mainsail is fine.
