I bought my C26 from a man who never raised the sails (weird!). I know that there is a cord that runs from the gooseneck back and partially through the boom, but I have don't know how to rig it or use it. I need your expert knowledge or there won't be any reefing in my future :0(

The information you need about the boom is in the documents section under c26 courser jpg 109. The pully on the boom is to tighten the foot on the mainsail. You can find information on reefing by googling jiffy reefing. There are several ways to reef. Searching the internet will raisiny give you plenty of information usually with pictures. I hope this helps.
