maybe a bit more friction.  But with the 6:1 advantage and ball bearing sheaves the sail is easily controlable.  Also no holes in the Dodger.

thanks everyone,
I spoke to Guido at Garhauer today and ordered the upgrade along with the blocks to run the control lines forwards to a block then aft to the cockpit parallel to the other lines.

Paul,  Is Garhauer giving a discount to you? 
I think on the "C-30 packages" that they're doing 10% discount (taking it away from us dealers LOL)

Twenty years from now you'll be more disappointed by the things you didn't do, than by the ones you did.
So throw off the bowlines.  Sail away from the safe harbor.  Catch the tradewinds in your sails.

Seems like that way introduces more friction?
Quite possibly Noah. However going to a ball bearing traveller and control block and turning block should be so much easier than we currently are setup.

Holding our breath waiting for arrival of the kit.
