I wasn't happy with tying down the mainsail with individual bungees. Bungees aren't adjustable so they are too loose or too tight, and I hate bungees cause they catch on themselves and everything else. I came up with a tiedown system that I like, it holds well and is fast and easy to use.

A single long bungee is hooked to the end of the boom, and to a bail on the mast just above boom level. About 3 feet aft of the bail attachment is a third hook which I also attach to the bail to take up slack in the bungee when not in use. After the mainsail is furled and starting at the aft end of the boom I reach under the boom and grab the bungee, then pull it over the boom until I can get it hooked on a cleat. Then I do that 4 more times. The system would work just as well with only 3 cleats
