Here's how it look from the cockpit. I never have to leave the cockpit to reef and can reef down in about three minutes. I start the motor, head into the wind, maintain enough way to maintain direction, scandalize the gaff, lower the main halyard as I pull on the jiffy reef, set the two forward cleats, and then set the aft jiffy reef. Depending on conditions, and how I feel, I may tie the two center sail ties.

Here's how it sets. The winds were around fifteen knots when this photo was taken.
