Default Hong Kong Sail?

The Hong Kong sails are primo. They are looking good and have
absolutely no visible wear. They set well and pull like a team
of draft horses. I'm very pleased with the purchase. One would
have a very hard time doing any better for the price I paid.

Woe be to any and all fools who think they can even keep up
with "Cut the Mustard" anymore. With the new sails and
stiff breezes going to weather I've sailed right by a
Nonsuch 30, a couple Pearson Tritons, a J/24 and
a J/30, a Tartan 30, an Allied Seawind 32 ketch, three or
four ugly Hunters of all sizes, a Morgan IO 28, a Glander Cay,
a Mac26X, a Dufour 30, and an Iroquois Cat to mention a few.
The only boat that sailed by me was one of those folding 27 foot
tri-marans from that Australian designer --- Farrier???

Simple?

How are your bargain Sails holding up on the corners? Is your shelve
still flat or has it lost that 90 degree angle with the foot of your
sail?

My main is doing fine, although I have to admit, I haven't been doing a
hell of a lot of sailing. We've had a very early cold Fall/Winter here
this year.

I've desided to go without the Shelve. I attached mylar tapes at the
bottom (Foot) of the Sail and get no indication of votex.
