Basic Reefing: A Guide To Taking A Tuck

Post by Jim Walsh »

I just received my November/December issue of WoodenBoat. It contains an excellent basic reefing guide for those who may be new to sailing or the concept of sail reduction. It is contained within their Getting Started In Boats insert. The insert can easily be removed for handy future reference. I recommend it to anyone who is not thoroughly familiar with reefing strategies and details. It is even available as a pdf file from http://www.woodenboatstore.com.
I see reefing questions on our forum on a regular basis. This publication seems as though it might help many who require the basics or a refresher. :wink:
