I went out with an old sea-dog and he suggested putting up the 100/110 and leaving it up. I have found the 110 is very easy to handle and meets my needs. I normally go out with me and a friend. The boat is easily handled in winds up to 22 knots. The 135 was more work to tack. In light air I raise the main and full out the headsail. If I need to reef, I reef early and bypass the first reef point. But I am not into racing and never will be. I leave racing to by tow wheel rocket. I enjoy the calm of sailing. I am impressed with you. Sailing a C&C 37 on the Ohio. You must be a sight. Not many large boats in your area. I lived in Charleston, WV for 12 years.
