For:
Baby stay - attach snap shackle at base with bungee to pull it to base
of mast when disengaged. Use block and tackle on baby stay for
adjustments (maybe 4:1, not sure yet).
I think you want to use a pelican style hook designed for rigging. The
baby stay can likely load up pretty good and you don't
want a broken snap shackle going flying by...
Something like:

Not sure how much load is on a 33 baby stay...

Everyone - thanks very much for the very useful and informative
responses - much appreciated! The goal is to get setup as simply as
possible.
I am tending for symmetrical setup for sure - just nice to be able to
go close to DDW efficiently - for cruising and racing (no asymmetrical
in our fleet).
So here’s where I’m at…
1.
Baby stay - attach snap shackle at base with bungee to pull it to
base of mast when disengaged. Use block and tackle on baby stay
for adjustments (maybe 4:1, not sure yet).
2.
Topping lift - consensus is that there is a sheave in the slot 2/3
the way up the mast I will check that out for sure. I will keep
topping lift cleat on the mast - for end to end gybe’s it should
require minimal adjustments.
3.
Inboard end - I will attach a ring to the mast (head highish) and
plan on gybing end to end.
4.
Downhaul - I saw the pics thanks but did not see a picture of the
deck fitting. I’m pretty sure I could devise a system that
connects to toe rail mid pole distance
Once again what a great response from this forum - thanks. I will
reply with an update hopefully sooner than later!
