Hey, Sloco....
 
Hint: Take a close look at the photo of his sail. Look at the
material near
one of the battens. Namely above and below.

The main thing that caught my attention regarding the sail in the photo
was how deep it was. Nobody builds mains that deep anymore.

Read my original post. I mentioned having eased the outhaul and
over-tensioning the battens in virtually no wind. The sail is certainly
cut flatter than my old Mylar.

Check the seams.
