Two lines coming off the boom. Two horn cleats? Interesting. I have not considered that. Not quite sure how that would work. I have seen the 7 sheave arrangement but not a 5.
Here is a page dedicated to my boat if you are interested:

You may notice a block near the cockpit sole with a cam cleat. I use that when day sailing. When racing we bypass that and use the horn cleat. The trimmer runs the line around the horn cleat to provide some friction so he can hold the sheet and make his adjustments. In other words, we do not cleat off when racing. A bit of explanation on that. In SF bay it is typically so windy and we typically have a lot of sail up. We use the main to keep the boat under target heal. We basically put a big bubble in the main and the main trimmer has to constantly play the sheet.
Anyway, sounds like Apex is out if it will be similar to Regatta. That leaves Samson LS or XLS. If you have an opinion on that selection I am all ears.
Thanks so much for your advice.
