Now have a fully battened main but none of the extra niceties like special cars or stack-pak etc. It does however go up and down very well in the berth, probably because I have a smallish boat.
I have the means of adjusting the battens a bit but would very much appreciate the knowledge of users of this system. Is it more or less the same as short battens i.e. kicker, luff tension , clew out haul etc ?
If for example you wanted to put more or less shape what would you do ? Or can't you do that much anyway ?
Have to admit that the extra option of altering the batten tension has thrown me off a bit.
Any ideas or suggestions would be very welcome.
Thanks in advance.
