Learning to sail will mean you must know how to reef. Reefing is the term used to describe the action of reducing he amount of sail area. By reducing sail size in a controlled manner the boat will still sail but with less drive from the sail. The benefit to the sailor particularly when learning is that the process will allow you to sail in a wider range of wind conditions and perhaps sail on windier days where a capsize is very likely if you don't reef. This short video will help you to see how a modern sailboat is reefed and get the best out of your sessions as you learn how to sail
