SINGLE LINE REEFING YOUTUBE

Reefing’s not a big deal. It’s as much part of everyday sailing as pulling up the main halyard. Time was when all reefing was basic slab systems or a very sorry arrangement that rolled the mainsail around the boom. Slab reefing is pretty sophisticated these days and the round-the-boom system has been replaced by efficient in-boom reefing. What’s relatively new is so-called single-line reefing. It has its uses and is fitted to more and more yachts, so here’s a how-to video on making it work with no drama. It wouldn’t be my own choice, but there’s a lot of it around, so off we go for a quick sail! Thanks to MDL Marinas for helping me make this video, and thanks also to my shipmate Toby. Watch his technique with the winch carefully. It’s absolutely exemplary.

If you’re interested in sailing, things maritime and the salty road to freedom, you'll enjoy my channel, so pour yourself a glass of the finest and settle down with my personal mixture of yarns and useful instructional material.

When I’m away cruising, I never know when I'll get the opportunity to upload. If you can't wait, why not become a member of my website club? You'll find lots of members-only videos and articles, not available elsewhere, and have a chance to join in a regular online forum.
