Hi all! I have a question, How do you make a H-16 sail flater or fuller with the help of the battens?

Please help.

Thanks.

As posted in a reply on the Hobie site:

Fuller? Less outhaul, less downhaul, Possibly more batten tension to

force

shape into the sail.

Flatter? Just enough batten tension to remove wrinkles, more outhaul, more downhaul.
