14 clutches total gives me all 4 halyards, topping lift, pole uphaul, main outhaul, vang and 3 double-line mainsail reefs all in the cockpit. The double line reefs are simple, easy to single hand. Each reef has a luff block on pennant - longer line but less effort. This season I intend to tie off one headsail halyard at the mast and use the deck gear for a cunningham.
