The genoa has got too much twist when:
- The sail luffs first in the upper part.
- The top windward telltale flutters first.
If the sail luffs first in the lower part the genoa has
too little twist. The bottom windward telltale will
flutter first when heading up. The traveller must now
be moved further aft. This will reduce the downward
tension in the sheet. The clew will lift and the top
of the genoa will fall off to leeward. At the same time the sail will be flattened in the lower part due
to an increase in the horizontal pull of the sheet |
