From the last shot, you need to either lower the pole or raise the hoist point. Lowering the pole is easier. The luff of this sail will be more stable and easier to sail if it is really snug. The Tiger guys sail with it loaded to the point that if you grab the luff, it takes effort to turn your hand 90 degrees. Don't worry, the load on the sail at speed will make the luff rounder and look to be far less tight than on the beach. |

i'm impressed you can tell that just by looking at it!!!!!!!!!! i will drop the pole a bit tomorrow as we did have some problems keeping the shape of the luff. |

you may want to add some pre bend to the pole as well. |

Looks like you just used a regular tang for the spin halyard. I am asking this same question in the 18 forum and getting confused with using a "Bail instead with a sting attached? |
