This method of sail construction is much more difficult and time consuming than a traditional flat cut sail. However, the results are worth it. Anything less would be a compromise.' I am not an aeronautic expert so I'll leave a discussion about this design to our technical experts out there. I just know that 'it flys good.' I'll see some of you in Ocean City tomorrow, Mark Virgilio (uspehmev@ibmmail.com) = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
