I've got a 30-1 not a 30-2 but I'll chime in anyway. Main: halyard, cunningham, outhaul, adjustable backstay, boom-end sheeting, traveler at aft end of cockpit, after-market Garhauer rigid vang (just installed), two reef points with single-line slab reefing for both.
Headsail: halyard, adjustable backstay, adjustable genoa cars on tracks or snatch blocks on toe rails (depending on headsail size). Also my #2 genoa (~150%) can be reefed at its foot, which I'd never seen on a headsail before this boat. I've got two 170s (one heavy one light), a 150, a 130, a jib, and a storm jib. Plus two "staysails" (one heavy one light) with an adjustable tack track on the foredeck. The light one hoists to the masthead via spare headsail halyard (I've got two), and the heavy one hoists with the spinnaker pole topping lift. I've yet to fly those.

Hey, all you 30-2 owners. I've got to ask what sail controls for head and main do you have?

I, too, carry a 140 genoa, and reef around 12 knots. I like to keep the boat on its "feet". So, 10 to 15 degree heel is good for me. Nervous or not, you'll start to feel weather helm at 10 to 12 knots, and you'll want to reef [the main 1st] to keep up your speed and reduce pressure on the rudder. You are correct that this boat is "tender". I believe there is a chart in the photoalbum archives that documents this as well as the 30-1's stiffness. That said, the boat carries a lot of sail area, and it's fast IMO. Also, I single-hand a lot and typically start with a reef as a prudent measure. If you don't already have them on your main, I recommend adding "dogbones" to your reef points, to make reefing quick and easy [and reduce the possibility of a rip to your sail; they are cheap]. Give a report on your 1st sail. Pete W.
