I should have been more specific. On my 1978 M17, there is a sheet winch, port side cabin top, just about directly above the galley sink between the grab rails and hatch cover coaming. It has a small cleat beside it. It surely was put there for a purpose, just not obvious to me what that might be. This boat does have a spinnaker halyard, in addition to those for the jib and main.
