The whole time we were under a reefed main. I am glad that I remembered from the manual how to rig that way. I discovered the grommets on the sail to roll it and had some line - so the rig ended up looking/working ok.
I am learning quickly. My boat is a 1978 and it is in very good condition. It has a split tramp like an H16 - which is being replaced as soon as slo sails can get my new one made.
