Mast erection

I have just brought home my new (to me) C-22 and I am trying to figure out all the pieces. Reading the mast raising instructions, Step 3-2 "lead the remaining ends...to the STRAP EYE on the mast". What's the Strap Eye?

I don't have anything on the mast, leading edge seven feet up. Now, I know this system has been used on this boat because it came with homemade bridles and the boom pin.

All help will be greatly appreciated. As soon as I get all the parts figured out, I'm going to need someone to show me how to sail it. Any volunteers in the Petenwell Flowage area of Wisconsin.........Mike

I have no idea what is the "Strap Eye".

Thank you Dmitri
Does any one else have a suggestion on how the "system" was used to lift the mast without the "Mast Eye".
Thanks Mike
