Has anyone got an ingenious way of altering the downhaul pulley block orientation by 90 degrees on brands such as Severne etc so that the North XT works most efficiently? (without the downhaul rope crossing and while maintaining the "loop and go" feature)

(the irony is that the Pryde sails work really well on it)

I've set up a "twisted shackle" on one sail which is ok, but I'm contemplating something different on my next attempt.

Any good solutions ?
