We could have reefed the main, but it would have been during the race. Being that it was a 5 leg race with 3 legs off the wind we elected to keep it full. We felt we would loose less time this way....we did finish 2nd beating a J100 and all the J24's
I remember a posting where Rod Johnston suggested that in heavy wind to have little vang / traveler up / twist off the top and use the bottom portion of the main as power
Does anyone have success with this set up?
