Jib is not the way, and you don't have a staysail on that Yankee. Your mainsail is your "main sail" and should give you the most mobility, Bob. Perhaps just reef her down well before you enter. How does she sail with one or two reefs in the main in moderate to high winds? Of course, you may want to line your entire slip - all sides - with very soft fenders!
