Very nice and superior to Navigator's lame picture of a sail way
too full for the conditions. The lines on the mainsail I can understand.
It's the line(s) on the jib that have me puzzled because there is not
really any adjustment to speak of available on the jib like there is on
the mainsail. What's the use of a line that facilitates adjustment when
adjustment is limited or lacking altogether?

Yeah. Same reason I have the red ones. I think Ol Thom can answer this
question better than anyone.

Notice the perfect shape? not all wrinkley like the navigators.

Notice that I have 3 red line on my sails,all of them.

your sail looksgood except for the shelf. Looks like wasted cloth,
more wear and chaffing, a great place to collect water and usless
unless you have a bunch of nic knacks to display. Should of gone with
a superior footless sail.
