Dennis, I have one on my 1974 35-2, and it is exactly what Rus guesses. Mounted on the flat on deck is a horizontal block that leads a line aft to the coach roof just forward of the cockpit. I have one on each side of the boat. One I use for a spin halyard, the other for the main sheet. On Cat's Paw, the headliner is cut and covered, just as Rus suggests, which hides the backing plate and nuts.
