This was hashed out on another thread... but the reefing line should be about the same size as the halyards on your boat, considering that they take about the same loads as the main sail halyard. BTW, if you have single line reefing, you might want to consider upgrading to double line reefing. Double line reefing gives you better control over the sail shape and is IMHO better and faster to set than single line reefing.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
