I added jiffy reefing end boom before Cuba race and really glad I did. Offshore is an almost constant reef/unreef exercise. I ran lines end boom to cringles but to get more purchase I used soft shackles with small blocks attached to each cringle then ran line down to boom. Attaching line to boom at right spot important just play around with it.
