instructions below to properly set up a sail reef. These instructions are assume
you are going from a fully hoisted sail to a reefed sail.

Remove the mainsheet
hook and unthread the

it from the hook and allow the sail
to drop until the second stop on the
halyard catches in the hook.

are just below the second batten. Run
a line through the grommets and tie it
