Minifish question

I just bought a used Minifish and note that there is no halyard eye or block on the deck, just a horn cleat on the deck at the base of the mast. I also see no screw holes where I would expect to see the deck eye. Is this standard rig? I plan to install a mast cleat and then run the slack end of the halyard to the deck cleat just to secure the rig in the event of a capsize, but I thought it was odd that there was no deck eye or block.

Comments?

Al,

That's all the Minifish comes with.

The instructions simply say, 'Raise the sail with the halyard and secure the loose end of the halyard to the cleat '
