Angus MacDuff Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 44 minutes ago, Lieste said: Yes, the topsails. The Topgallants are furled. The Topsails are reefed - note that the yard is lowered to suit the reduced height of the sail. All three reefs are taken to the yard. A single reef has the yard higher, and no reefs taken have the yard hauled right up. I see. Then the courses are reefed also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeRuyter Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 16 minutes ago, Lieste said: They do look to be, but the yards are kept high (providing the footing for the topsail) and the clew is higher than with an unreefed course. They have a single reef (as you can see in post Feb 1). @Angus MacDuff If you look closely you can see the bunched sailcloth which could indicate a reef taken in the fore course. Main course is furled. They may also be trimming the forecourse loosely to spill wind which could also account for the higher clew and billowing foot. I sailed on a replica of an early 17th century ship (1625) , Kalmar Nyckel. No reefing in the early 17th century. For the courses you had a "bonnet" attached to the bottom of the course which could be removed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
