Subject: When to Reef
Info: (6516 views) Posted: Thursday 11-5-09 09:21:18 PM

I'm with Ciaran, a Tuna sails very well under main alone, since they tend to have very little wx helm under both sails. I have no reefing points or even flattener, if it blows over 30 I pull all the control lines, hike like heck and play the traveller like mad (upwind). Above 40 I don't go out, that's the most effective reef of all.
