My mainsail has very little twist in it comapred to say the Landenberger sails, can anyone comment on the why's and hows of sail twist, in particular how do you work out what sail twist is needed and how do you induce more mainsail twist uisng out haul downhaul main sheet etc.

My personal opinion is that with the F16's sailing more and more on apparant wind then we should need less twist than say a laser dinghy which moves relatively slowly compared to the wind speed. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
