Default It's going to be wet and windy...

Wimp! I can tell you don't have double reef points on your mainsail
custom designed to reduce your sail area to that of a storm trysail
on the deepest reef like I do. Combine this deeply reefed mainsail
with my custom storm jib and I could sail comfortably in forty-five
knots sustained.


Until those sewn-on reef points pull right off the sail, then you are in
trouble. Get a local sailmaker to install proper cringles for the reefs.
