Quick question.  Would cam cleats mounted on the cabin top  be substantial 
enough to serve as a clutch for the main halyard??  I was planning on 
putting a block at the base of the mast with a turning block on the cabin 
top  and then running it aft through a cam cleat.  I haven't had any 
problems just reaching over the cabin hatch to cleat the halyard off on the 
mast cleat, but started thinking about what I would do in an extreme 
emergency  and needed to drop the main in a split second.
Thanks,
Joe
