  • no, they should be tied to the boom, as you no longer have any effective outhaul, and as the foot of the sail is extreeeemly loose otherwise (and you're in heavy wind) the sail ties act as both a way to secure the new "foot" of the sail at the bottom of the reef as well as act as your new ourhaul

  • shouldnt the lines that are used to tie up the folded part of the main *not* go underneath the boom? I.e. the boom should not be tied up with the sail? That is how I learned it. Is that right?
