Curtis, I still have the original instruction manual for my C&C 30-1 (1973), and there is no such thing in the manual. These sail reduction pattern were popular in the era of hank-on sails, when boats were carrying more than half a dozen sails to cover various wind conditions. I guess such a sail reduction pattern could be constructed based on collective experience, taking into account the fact that most boats today carry roller furling sails.
Here is my own reduction pattern followed on the ocean with the following sail inventory: main with three reefs, reinforced furling genoa 135%, working jib 65% permanently hanked-on on removable inner forestay, 20% storm jib stored in a bag secured on deck for easy access and, spinnaker. I also had in store a 110% hank-on genoa which was never used but could have been if anything happened to the genoa. Upwind Up to Force 4 (16 knots true), full main and full genoa. Getting closer to 16 knots, the genoa may get a few turns to the first dot (115%) Up to Force 5 (22 knots true), Main one reef and genoa rolled to second dot (100%) Up to force 6 (26 knots true on average, meaning that occasional gusts near 26 knots): Main two reefs and working jib 65%, much more efficient than rolled genoa. Continuous wind 25 knots and above up to 35 knots, Main three reefs on lower end of spectrum, and Jib, Jib only in the upper range Above 35 knots, up to 40 knots and above in gusts, main three reefs and storm jib Above 45 knots, forget the idea of going upwind. Downwind Up to Force 4 (Main and spinnaker) Force 5 main and full genoa Force 6 (Main one reef and genoa getting partially rolled 120%) Force 7 (Main two reefs and genoa rolled 110%) Force 8 No main, and genoa less than 100% Force 9 Genoa about 40% Above storm jib for a while. Never did that, thankfully. If I had to change anything in the setting, I would like very much a 100% blade jib with two reefs instead of the 65% working jib. Upwind, the genoa would get rolled after force 4 to raise the blade, heavier weather can be fun when you have the right sails for it.
