Gary, Thanks for the input, and that brings up another decision - should I go for a 135% or a 150%? The price difference is pretty small, and the 150% would give better sailing in the Mid-Atlantic doldrums of July and August. I had thought that the limit of effective reefing was around a 25% reduction, which, starting with a 150% still leaves a lot of sail up. I'm hoping to use the sail over a wide range of conditions single-handing, so it seemed that the 135% might be the best compromise, but maybe I need to rethink it.
