Just got my NEW Calvert Square Top mainsail and am re-using the old battens but the new sail came with webbing and a buckle that I'm not sure what to do with. I am guessing I need to purchase something like the RBS Batten Tensioner that fits up into the pocket and trim all the battens accordingly (down) and then tighten up the straps.
WTF?

Second question is what is the thin line sewn into the leech that extends out the foot for? It's like the thickness of battening tensioning line. What does that attach to? What is it's purpose?

Thanks.
Greg
