[Public-List] Public-List Digest, Vol 3784, Issue 1

[Sheldon Shikoluk]

I have a 140 on a furler that performs well in 10 to 18, then I roll it up
a few turns when i have crew. When solo I put single reef in main and a few
turns on 140 at 15 knts. and boat sails wonderfully. When I have crew and
race in winds over 20 knt. I double reef main and shorten 140
substantially, I dont do well in high wind races.
