Building Grace: Rig Non-Standard Gaff for Reefing (Finally), and Some Rowdy Reefed Sailing
1 year ago
36
This is the fifth season for the boat, and although I designed the main sail with reef points, I hadn't yet finished rigging for reefing.
Part of the reason is that its a forgiving rig, and I can get by in 20+k breeze by luffing, and generally sail where I can get to shelter if things get worse than that.
But the other reason is, the boat has a non-standard gaff rig which introduces challenges for reefing.
I'm thinking about joining the week-long Elbow Run camping/sailing event, which means I need to be on the water regardless of the weather, within reason, so: time to rig for reefing!
Hope you enjoy the video!
