On our 37/40 XL the middle halyard (on our boat this one is blue) we use for the Genoa, which lives on the Roller Furler. The two outside ones, port (which is a red halyard), and starboard (which is green), we use for Spinnakers. Ours exit on the opposite side of the mast to where they are at the top. No extra external Block at the mast top for the spinnakers, just the internal sheeves in the masthead, port and starboard.
