I read a description of a "H16 with a reefable main" in another post. Now, I know there ARE holes in the mailsail for reefing, but I always considered these holes in the same catagory as the boom vang on a H-16. I've never reefed my main. If its THAT windy, I don't sail. But I live on a freshwater lake. Maybe, if I sailed the coast where I think folks could get caught in bad wind, I'd have a different view, -but then again, maybe I wouldn't.
What's your view on reefing a H-16? (I already hang fuzzy dice from my boom vang, so I can't think of any more alternative uses for those mainsail holes.)
