On Macavity I had the mast collar redone to include 10 places to attach 
blocks. I use them all. We have 2 lewmar 40s mounted on the deck aft of 
the mast with sheet stoppers in front of them. On the starboard side we 
have main halyard, topping lift and two spinnaker halyards.On the port 
side we have two genoa halyards and the spin pole butt lift and drop 
lines. Joe Launie, Macavity
