Default how a sail works, Windtunnel Tests.

Don't work for Ole Thom either. What are they trying to show? It seem to
indicate an over trim of both jib and main. If the maun was eased and
the slot open some I think things would clear up?

As it is, what are we looking at.. Is the votex being caused by the
slot? Is the tell-tales showing separation on the windward side. The way
the tails are behaving there is no sign of coanda effect, they are
lifting but still pointing back????
