Default New mainsail question..

Another thought (although you've probably checked) - any chance that
the boom or reefing lines are holding the sail down? Is the leech of
the sail tight when it is raised as far as it will go?


No. I checked that too. If the sail goes up another foot, it'll be
perfect!

I'll report back as soon as I've compared the sails off the boat, then
check the slugs - then after I've checked the mast, I thought I'd take
the top one or two off the new sail..
