It's been my experience on several different boats that you are better off with a double or triple reefed main and no jib. Having a little bit of main sail up gives you far more control with only minimal risk of being over powered. On boats with a very large main sail and/or minimal reef points, a small staysail or storm jib might be the way to go. But then you don't have the mighty Yammie 9.9 OB to keep way, do you?
