Bethwaite is good but from memory he doesn't cover una rigs too well and not having a jib does make a difference - mainly that you need to trim the boom out 10-15degs or so and that also means getting a flat exit with a tight outhaul isn't as important ('cos you're sheeted out a bit and not on the centreline)

Thanks! Called Jim and he is going to email me some stuff to help get started.
