[quote=MN3]Yes, the H16 is built with de-powering in mind.
I will let the guys who currently own one to go into detail but the main things that are universal are
1. if you have a furling jib, furl it
2. travel out... NOT sheet out. Sheeting out can make a bigger pocket to "catch" air in... you want a flat (tight) mainsail. you can keep it tight and travel out to reduce power.
3. older Hobie's had grommets in the sail to "reef" up the bottom panel (reef means curl / roll up) and there was a 2nd bead on the halyard so it can be lowered. [/quote]
