Request for photos of boom setups

Hi everyone!

Need some inspiration. If you have any photos of your boat showing the boom, with external outhaul, boom vang, reefing lines, mainsheet and all the cleats and lines that go with it, I'd love to see it.

I got all the hardware and line for the installation of: external outhaul, lazyjacks, boom vang on a boom-end mainsheeted boat. I think I have a good idea of how I'm going to install everything, but would really appreciate seeing how others have it set up.

From this forum and speaking to riggers, friends, etc, I think I've settled on what exactly I'd like to do, but would love to see how others have done it to make sure I haven't missed anything.

My setup will be:
port side boom - external 4:1 outhaul, 2:1 at clew, around a cheek block at boom end, down to and 2:1 at boom for cascade block.

stbd side boom - clew end reefing lines down to lead car blocks, through 3-4 pad eyes along stbd side of the boom, terminating at two small cleats (cringle manually hooked to gooseneck at mast)

Bottom of the boom - 3 pad eyes for 3 leg lazyjack system. Support line goes up to cheek blocks at the mast then back down, to 4 inch cleats at mast
