What is a spinnaker gallow ?

I found that in the following sentence :
Spinnaker gallow is permitted with a single halyard.

=========================================

Are you sure they didn't mean to say "boom gallow" ?

A boom gallow as you may know is rack for the boom to rest in when the
main sail is lowered. I have never heard of a spinnaker gallow and
can not imagine a function for one.

Thanks.
It might be a spinnaker pole gallow, used on some of these boats
(Aphrodite 101) to store the pole alongside the boom.
