Hi,

I have had a mainsail on order for my 34' boat from Direct-sails.com (a company based in China) for about 6 weeks now and for that entire 6 weeks, I've been trying to find out the size of the battens they use so I can order batten cars since my current sail only has partial battens. I've been unable to get any answer so far. Maybe I don't really need to know the size of the battens since they should handle whatever is needed, but I'm concerned since I'll need to order a mast slider for the full battens. Does anyone know how Direct-sails.com terminates battens at the luff side? It seems that batten receptacles/boxes are highly recommended for mainsails for 34' boats. Does Direct-sails.com include a batten receptable of some kind? I have a Tides Marine mast track, if that matters. Thanks for any insights you can provide.
