Hi All -
Does anyone have a shop drawing or the dimensions of the reefing points for a NS36 sail? Is there any guidance on the amount of sail being reefed or is it subjective?
Thanks

"The Nonsuch sail has two relatively shallow reefs. The first reef reduces the sail by
approximately 36%; the second reef reduces the sail area by an additional 31%.
Therefore under a double reef the sail area has been reduced by approximately 67%"

FWIW. This is book learning on my part, not my own expertise.
