I would second what Rick said.
You want dog-bones at the reef cringles, and they have to be the right length.
Without them it might be really difficult to put the tack onto the reefing hook.
There is nothing that says that the slabs need to be of equal length; so, the
2nd reef can be set as hig
The subject of reef points was a topic when my sailmaker and I were
discussing specs for my new mainsail two years ago. As I recall, he said it
would be typical to install the reef points so the first reef reduced the
mainsail area by about 25%, and the second reef point would reduce the
original s
Not specific to 33 mkII but it is my experience that most slab reef points
are equal distance from one another and the boom. About 1/4 of the height
of the sail per slab.
If you find that the boat is uncontrollable in heavy winds with the first
reef then either a second reef or no mainsail at all
I have a 33MKII and all my mainsails have a single reef point.
I do have two reefing lines in my boom so I can accommodate a second reef
and am thinking of having one installed.
My questions are:
1. Do other 33MKII have as second reef?
2. Are they beneficial?
3. Where on the m

Bruce,
Instead of trying to figure out exactly where to drill holes, I’d do what they
suggest — a rectangular cut-out to access everything.
However, personally, I wouldn’t do a teak cover, but a smoke-white sheet of
plexi with LEDs inside as better cabin lighting.
Hmmm.
All the best,
I installed a jib track on Touche'. I covered the fasteners and headliner
cut out with a varnished teak cover.

The piece of teak is hollowed out. It is held up by fasteners are tapped
into the aluminum backing plate.

nice in that they do not present any metal to the boat.
They work well but are a bit hard to use here as the club doe
Bruce,
I removed my headliner (cut, scraped...it was ugly and messy) at the point of
installation, got to the underside of the deck, hrough bolted, and covered the
whole thing with a strip of finished teak. Looks like it belongs there.

Hi Len,
You ask an excellent question, but Rob Ball let me know that he found out that
they didn't start encapsulating a bar of aluminum below the genoa tracks until
much later, so unfortunately I am stuck with tracks that are through-bolted
without having holes in the head liner. So, I'm stu
