Single line reefing works best with slides installed on the luff. To make your reefing truly "single handed" ask your local sail loft or send your sail to us for installation of "jack line" on the luff of your main. Several slides are attached to the line which extends from the tack to the luff reef grommet. As you reef, the grommet can be snugged right down to the boom without anyone going on deck to remove slides from the mast track.

When you are ready to shake the reef out, just cast off the reef line and haul the halyard until the main is at full hoist. There is no need to re-feed the bolt rope or luff slides.
