Re: M_Boats: Where to place Tell-Tales on M15 Main
Norm, The last time I bought new sails the sailmaker put them on the leach at the top of the batten slot. They are very useful there and if you want to see why go to: http://www.northsails.co.uk/media/fast/mainsail/step1.htm then page down to the second page and click on flow. You will see the telltale flowing off of the leech. This is a great sail tuning site with animation. Thanks Doug Kelch "Seas the Day" --- Norm Bundek <nbundek@earthlink.net> wrote:
I'm about to put tell-tales on my main which has three battens. Do the tell-tales go above, below or on the battens (6 -12" in from leech)? The battens split the sail into thirds.
