Rod,

My '93 model won't be rigged for a couple more months when she wakes from
her winter rest.  I just use a few horn cleats along the bottom of the boom
for both the outhaul and main furling lines.  If I need to tighten the foot
of the partially furled main, I prefer to haul on the furling line because
the leverage is better than the outhaul.  Plus, I have a short line on the
outhaul slide with figure 8 knots on both ends that let me pull on the
sllide from either side of the cockpit and that lock nicely in horn cleats.
