We installed one of Handy-Stan's (and I use that handle with the utmost respect for the egalitarian magician and engineering wizard that he is) used IMFs, and the sail isn't sitting properly; the sail is quite loose and luffs badly, unless I tighten the tuning line in the leach, which makes a big pocket out of the sail.
