Are we talking true or apparent wind speeds with respect to when to reef?
If I am just out for an easy cruise which I start before noon with the
full main and 130 RF genoa, often times rather than reef the main I
just get rid of the furling genoa when the afternoon wind pipes up.

Randy,
I get the impression that the roller reefing boom was on a number of the early
70s C&C models, though whether standard or optional I don’t know.
My 25 came with a roller reefing boom. It also had a soft vang. Part of the
gear included a large yellow metal “hoop”, in the top of whic

I'm a fan of keeping the boat pretty flat, so I usually reef my 33 at about
13kn if i know its blowing that before I head out.
If i'm already out, i'll wait until around 15 kn before doing the main but will
usually furl in the genoa a bit before that.
The wind on Lake Ontario is rarely steady,

Hey Randy,
I have 30-1 hull number 377. She's a 1976 model year built in 12/75.
I too have a slider between the head and the salon, but nothing between the

would probably be a tight fit.

Later versions (1980) have a hinged door between the salon and head areas and a
double hinged door between the v-berth and the head. I’m not sure whether that
was standard or optional – I think that list may be in my paperwork.

Do you need a vang? Depends how much you care about sailing efficiency
(Cruising or racing). Also, to some degree I would be inclined to believe
that a properly trimmed main will also last longer. Without enough vang

My 35 MKII came with a door that hinges in the middle, so it stores

Any that do spin may subsequently leak. That is why the recommended

Bill – I’ve raced with an asym for the last 5 years. I looked closely at the
top down spin furlers at a recent boat show. They are expensive and, I’m told,

Mine was hard to measure because there was a slight taper to the hole at
the ends of the strut. You might double check the measurement. 1 5/8
