I think Michael Crombie is referring to the two 'mast collar bars' that
attach to the mast collar and come down the mast and bolt through it to
counter the upward force of halyards.

Like most of you guys, I have a Cunningham cringle (And use it). However,
I never quite got a clear Halyard vs Cunningham answer until I did a little

On my centreboard 35-3 CB there is a dedicated self tailer for the board
hoist, with a clutch. Up wind that winch becomes the tensioner for the
cunningham . Downwind the cunningham is released and the winch reverts back to
its original task of raising the board. Works well since these actions
We should all remember that tensioning the backstay on upwind runs loosens
the halyard so hauling it to full height under no load may not be tight
enough...hence the cunningham. And once its loaded up the halyard is even
more difficult.

I was told much the same. Tension cunningham and flattenig reef upwind,

Was also told that the halyard tensions the luff (bolt rope) and the
cunningham actually stretches the material of the sail

This may have been answered, but I didn't see it.
The hooks are about a foot long, flat pieces of stainless about an inch wide
and 1/8 inch thick with a hook at the top end. They bolt to each side of the
mast just under the cabin roof. There are two bolts which go through the hooks
