Kreg,
On my C 24 there was a reefing horn at the gooseneck. I used it extensively
and it worked fine. Eventually, I added a dog-bone through the reefing cringle
at the tack, so it was easier to hook it up.
At the clew, I used a reefing line through a cheek block to a small horn cleat
on the
Or if you are a really frugal sailor, you will pick up about 6’ of used line at
the dumpster, loop it under the gooseneck, through the sail ring, and tie a
quick knot back in front of the mast. Yeah, but It’s my boat and I want to
spend $50 for a nice SS fix, and will it hold in 60kts of wind?
On my 25, I used a Cunningham to secure the tack. Or you can install reefing
horns at the gooseneck.

My new to me 1977 C 24 is slab reefed with two teef points in the main.
No reefing lines are ren to the clew of either reef. The pulleys are on the
boom for the clew lines. And the loops are there to lead the line forward
toward the mast. But there are no cleats on the mast to secure the clew
line
