Showing boom end Topping lift Reef line return block
Three things going on here
1/ The green line is the return line from the leech which runs along the boom to another turning block then down to a block on the mast back up to a block on the tack then down to another turning block then to a clutch on the cabin top
2/ The gold and black fleck line is the 3 to 1 out haul, this runs through the block down through the boom and exits at the end of the boom through a turning block, then another block and then to a clutch on the cabin top.
3/ The gold and black fleck line tied off at the boom end runs through a block which is attached to the red and white line which is the topping lift, the main line then runs through a turning block on the boom and then to a clam cleat, this makes the topping lift adjustable.
