Are you going loose footed or slotted?
In Response To: North Main sail ()

With lazy jacks (or hopefully the simplier Harken system, I think the lower battens could be more conventional.

I think a loosefooted give better shaping and response to adjustments in the outhaul.

I'm not a fan of the zip-up Stackpack or the Norht equivalent Quick Cover in terms of how the foot of the sail is "thinkened up".
