How does everyone have their Halyards set up?

Port: Genoa 1, Genoa 2, Reef
Starboard: Spin, Main, Topping Lift

Our jib halyards and reef are led back to the coach roof on the port side (of course).

Spin is on the mast with a cam cleat. Main and topping lift led back to the starboard side coach roof.

Our main and primary jib halyards are on port side cabin top. Jib stays on winch, main stays on cleat. Primary spin has two cleats in mast (need two of windy) and then led back to starboard. One additional Genoa/spin halyard feeds back to starboard cabin top as the OD required extra. topping lift on mast, down haul goes back to starboard cabin top with swivel. cleat to help pit person with the angle. We don‮t use the reef.
