He talks during the video about the off set from port to starboard.

And I think he says it doesn't matter that it's not on the centerline Gene(??). Interesting stuff. I notice the offset (in the video), if correctly trimmed does keep the sail off on either tack when the wind is forward of the beam. It does not downwind but maybe that's not an issue. The aerodynamics and windage page is very interesting below.
