   Triple Rope Clutches

Submitted by John Gisondi

 

Peregrine has triple clutches on each side. On the port side (near my cabintop winch), I have main halyard, boom topping lift and spinnaker halyard.  On the starboard side, I have the spinnaker pole topping lift, main reefing line and main outhaul.  From a mast plate with 4 holes fore and aft of the mast, swivel blocks send the lines straight out the side to Shaeffer triple deck organizers.  The lines are routed back to the cockpit between the handrail and the poptop, to Spinlock triple rope clutches.  The deck organizers and clutches are bolted through the deck. There are no plates in the cabin but large washers.
