Hi Greg,

Although this picture is a bit distorted, it may give you an idea of how
the genoa sheets are lead through blocks on the outboard track and then
back to the primary winches.  The rope clutches/sheet stoppers on the top
of the house could be for a vang, halyards lead back to the cockpit, pole
lift, etc.  I use mine for the vang, the main outhaul, the spinnaker
halyard and the spinnaker tack line (for an asymmetrical spin).
