So probably they are the stock setup? Works very well for me.

Only difficulty I have is the current mainsheet block and tackle setup does not allow me to stop and cleat it very well (on the way up or down) when single handing the mast. Playing with the cleat position it is better for cleating but hard to get undone to continue lowering.
