We just need a cool carbon tackable cooler!

If you are going to be lightweight upwind, there is nothing like a good helping of tension on the uppers. It wont cost you aught downwind where your light weight will be helping anyway. Upwind it gives you a lot of options to keep the boat moving fast.

If its a long beat to windward in PHRF, moving the cooler to windward helps for two reasons. Better weight placement. Easier access to beverages. Nobody should be sailing PHRF without refreshment.

Would it be class legal to mount it on an athwartships track?

If it is non-class legal and it carries cold beer, the design team in Austin TX will be on it.
