With the proper technique, the sheets will never get that far forward to be 
 able to get hung up on the forward cleat. You need to work on your  
technique.

Stan has  a "guard" that fits over the cleat to prevent the sheets from
getting  tangled in it.  That works, but it still is easier in light  winds
especially to bring the genoa in short of the shrouds and then let it  back
out, in my opinion.
