We also run the halyard through a small block on the front beam so that it can be uncleated (from the inverted cleat on the head-banger on the mast) from anywhere on the boat with a simple tug.


Thats interesting- I hadn't thought of that but it certainly would cut down on the line re-cleating as you are pulling on the snuff line. However, have you had problems with the line coming uncleated accidentally?
