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 sai

Josh,
The term sail plan should be a giveaway. properly speaking a sailplane is the
diagram we have all downloaded fron the Photoalbum that gives I,J,P,AND E for
our boats. What Curtis provided would be more properly termed a sail usage
guide.
A cat won't point like one of our boats. Going to
Thanks Michael, This was a great help.

P.S. So the charter companies don't like seeing their boats sailed
properly?

The recommended sail plan would need to factor in what type of sails you have,
the condition
of the sails, what the Apparent Wind Angle is, and also what you are trying to
accomplish.
Getting the last 0.1 kt of speed in a race versus taking a conservative choice

You are missing a vital point. Charter cats NEED a written sailplan. They have
little to no steering feel and don't heel until it is too late. If you leave
too much sail up they might just round up against full rudder, go really fast
but ruin the sails*, break something, or perhaps capsize. It s
This is pretty much a universal rule of thumb.
Reduce sail area when you loose helm, rail starts going in the water, or
the wife starts screaming.
Add sail area until one of the above occurs.
In actuality "reef early and often" is a better rule.
Additionally, any more than ~20° of heel is when
