Polling out Code zero with boom.

Hi all, it looks like of got a long light wind run coming up.

I haven't been successful with using the boom to pole out my code zero out in the past.

I used a Antel snatch block or frictionless ring on the end of the boom to guide the sheet but it always ends up scarring up the boom.

Any advice or photos that may give me a idea on how to do this better?

In the right conditions I can pole the jib out, have the main up and run the code zero, if I could just get the Code zero out a little further I'm certain it will make a difference.

Cheers Dale.
