http://flic.kr/p/9psB2U There is a pully below the mast and behind the dolphin striker. There is another one on the aft crossbar, underneath. They are just hanging there. What the heck are these for? Please excuse the messy condition of everything you see..... I just bought this from a guy who hadn't sailed it in 4 years! I'm on day two of a very lengthy process to bring this thing back to life.

It may be for a righting line system called Bravo. I did a Google search for righting line and came up with it. It uses a stretch cord that will then automatically retract when released.

It's probably what's left of an Hawaiian Righting System, although the block in the front is really not necessary.
