There is something inherently beautiful about a proper hank-on sail.

Yea they look real nice especially when they are scalloped going up wind.

Now Loco, lets be fair here, some of us still sail with hank-ons, if
you've
got scallops you've got something wrong, (which Neal has in abundance),
get
the forestay tension and luff tension right and you won't have them.

Cheers

Nope, don't have the problem. I use a Tuff Luff.
