Reefing a Gaff Rigged Sail Boat

After making a small comment on one of my recent posts about a couple of Cats sailing around with loose reefs tied in, a chap named Bill Stanard sent me this attachment on how to reef a gaff rigged sail boat. Bill, as you might recall has been building a catboat of his own, called, CLEMENTINE. Click on link to be taken to Stanard Boat Works and Clementine.  http://www.stanardboatworks.com/Lynx/pictureTable.htm

Thanks for the info Bill, I will pass it along via Post, this post.
