Hi all,

I'm interested in peoples opinion of various single line reefing systems.

At the moment my system incorporates four movements if you dis-regard vang and topping lift.

First release main halyard tension
Second pull down reefing tack to desired position
Third pull reefing clew into proper position
Fourth re-tension main halyard.

I know there are other adjustments, but I am just talking about the actual reefing of the sail.

What I would like to know what simple and effective means others use to make this a simpler task. Particularly for single or short handed sailing.

I am interested in trying this system as it looks about as basic as you can get.
