Yes, for the most part, but I don't understand this:
"Like the parrel at the boom"
Not sure if that was a typo or not, but I don't know what a parrel is.

The internet is your friend.
A parrel (or parral) is a nautical term for a sliding loop or collar (made of rope, wood, or metal) that attaches a ship's yard (spar) or boom to the mast, allowing it to move up and down freely while also being held in place, often with the aid of wooden beads called parrel beads. It comes from Middle English and is related to "apparel," meaning equipment or rigging, and can also refer to fireplace ornamentation in older usage.

Some have more ropes and beads.

This is a jaw that goes around the mast. You see two drilled holes here, one on top for the halyard, and one on the side for the parrel. In this case the parrel will be a sliding rope. {It slides up and down the mast, moving the yard up or down}. There is a matching hole drilled on the other side of this jaw. You thread the parrel through the hole on this side , then leaving a loose loop so it will place the yard where you wish it to be on the mast, loop the parrel around the mast and thread the rope through the other side of the parrel. If you have enough of a loop the yard will fit over the mast, slide in place where ever you wish it to be, and snug it up. If you see beads mentioned, they go on the parrel before doing the opposite side of the jaw, and do help the halyard in moving the yard up and down. My model is small so I did not use beads, just rope.
