I have a 1985 25' MacGregor that I sail quite often single-handed and am in the process of running my main halyard back to the cockpit. While I was in the store to enquire as to the needed hardware the salesperson suggested that I install a jiffy reefing system as well. I think that is what he called it. Do you knowledgable, experienced sailors out there think that the added expense for the jiffy reefing is really necessary? Thanks for your help.

Hi Wayne.... Go in to www.harken.com - rigging tips - mastbase and cabin top blocks. You will find some cool ideas on mainsail control to cockpit. Also go in to shop online - search - lazy jacks. In there you will see a single line jiffy reefing system. Do it yourself with parts from a marine store. I am in the process and will finish it up soon. happy reefing......dan
