Thanks. When I looked closer this afternoon is saw the ram's horn :) so I 
captured the cringle on the rams horn and used the in boom lines to bring down 
the clew. A friend suggested the jam cleat might be to secure the baby stay 
adjuster which looked as though it might be correct or perhaps for a cunningham.

Thanks all

 A jam cleat on the mast may be for temporarily parking a halyard if you are at 
the mast pulling it up.  I use one for my main when I'm sailing by myself.  Or 
maybe for a cunningham?My reefing lines come out the underside of the boom, 
down to the mast collar, and back along the deck to clutches near the 
companionway.

I cant seem to figure it out. I have a jam cleat on the starboard side of the 
mast the stops a line from being pulled towards the deck (is this part of it?). 
I'm stumped

Thanks in advance
