Close. I should be an eyestrap. Locate it a few inches aft of the reeking crinkle. The reefing line then runs from the boom end slightly forward to the reefing crinkle then slightly aft to the eyestrap. Terminate the reefing line in the eyestrap with a figure eight knot.
When done properly, you will have a 2:1 purchase which pulls the reefing crinkle aft from both sides of the sail/boom. Dennis C.
