Yeah - the straight-batten jib will NOT furl to the required dimension.

Do you think we can propose some rules changes (like furled dimension and sticker location) before September??

[i]edit - straight battens are allowed in the International F18 rules - the "parallel to the luff" appears to be a NA thing, along with the furled dimension. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
