Subject: Reefing -forbidden?

You should never need to reef unless you are going out in the ocean. The rest of the time you should be able to sail with a smaller headsail and keep the boat on its feet. Keep the sails flat and feather to keep the boat flat. If you are sailing in a lot of chop then you want to ease the jib a bit and twist off the main.
