The photo (right) shows the original port side layout. After some experiment I decided the cam cleat worked best on the port side by moving everything inboard - I moved the outer most Spinlock clutch (spinaker halyard) inboard of the other two clutches and rethreaded the halyards to keep the same order.
I fixed the camcleat close to the clutches angled towards the area that I would be sitting. To lead the sheet into the camcleat I used the guide on its forward side (the guide is designed to allow this although it is usually placed the other side of the cleat). I used a camcleat wedge raise the forward edge of the cleat.
The starboard cleat is arranged in a similar manner. For that I had to move the lazy-jack halyard clamcleat, placing it alongside the topping lift clamcleat.
