  • Fantail. The luff parrel and the Hong Kong parrels are pulling the middle of the luff aft too much, resulting in diagonal creases.
  • Fantail, before removal of the Hong Kong parrels. The luff hauling parrel now runs from the yard end, to the 2nd batten down, to the 4th batten down, and to the deck. The sail now sets much better.
  • Fantail, before the addition of a tack line to remove the diagonal crease in the bottom panel, and before removal of the Hong Kong parrels.
