The secret to life

The secret to life is Reef Early, Reef Often

The saying "reef early, reef often" is a crucial principle in sailing, particularly when managing sails in changing wind conditions. It emphasises the importance of reducing sail area before conditions become challenging.

A Proactive Approach: Sailors should reef their sails at the first sign of increasing wind rather than waiting until they are struggling. This helps maintain control and comfort on the boat
Crew Safety and Comfort: Reefing early helps protect the crew from fatigue.
