Why do we have a yellow batten?
Mine doesn't have any discernably different bend charactersitics to the red battens.
What is it about the bottom section of the sail which might need a different characteristic? I thought that the yellow batten might be stiffer due to the absence of a boom, but Bob tells me that it is supposed to be softer.
Come on theorists & sailmakers, what's it all about?
