Same here I went out around 7am this morning, the wind was around 15
and has buildt all day and is at a steady 25-right now, a bit much for
my Labrisa, no reefing points on it.

I have two mains. The other one is a bit tired, but serviceable. I also have
a three-piece jib. It has a zipper on the bottom of each section except the
final foot. I've never seen one like that before, it's in great shape, and I
was thinking about getting in changed over so I can put it in the spare slot
of the furler. I'll have to get a quote and then compare it to getting a new
sail. And, strangely, the boat came with a furling jib that just about fits
the new furler. I was using it this weekend. It definitely needs to be cut
down a foot or so, and the sailmaker is headed over there right now to take
a look. It also is in great shape. I think for next season, I'm going to get
a cruising chute made if the cost of changing or replacing the zippered jib
is too high.

I really like ketches... such a flexible sailplan. Almost bought a Pearson
365.
