Thanks again.

I LOVE FULL BATTENS!!

When we got a new main, I opted for full battens. The only con I can come up with is that it's a pain to flake.....prior to the full battens I could grab and roll to bunch up the sail. Now it needs a little more care to lay properly on the boom. But the shape is so much better!!

Sailmonkey - I'll put you down as a "yes" then.

Thanks for the input!

So that's 2 "yes", 0 "no."

Actually, we're leaning heavily towards doing it. Just waiting to see how much more it's going to increase the cost, but unless it's an outrageous difference I'd say we're going to go with full battens.

Thanks.
