Assembly Instructions
Installing Sail Battens
Hollowed-out
side of tip
Start here with a
bowline knot
Batten pocket
Cleat at mouth of each tip
Unfold the sail and lay it out on the trampoline. There will be a small
bundle of thin lines tied to the top of the sail. These are the batten ten-
sion lines. Tie the batten tension lines to one of the small grommets
at the end of each batten pocket as diagramed (one to each batten
pocket). Tie the lines using a bowline knot as found in the “knots”
page. It is best to tie the lines all to one side of the sail. Insert each
batten (shortest at the top to longest at the bottom of the sail).

NOTE: The batten ends have a “V” jam cleat molded into them. These
“V” jam cleats will keep then tension line from slipping in only one
direction. Note the hollowed-out side of the cleats. Pull the line from
the flush side toward the hollowed side.
