Home >> Technical >> Escaped Battens
Hi Charlie,
Presuming the stitching is intact, you need to check the battens engage the elastic at the inboard end, so that they don't escape around the stitching at the outboard end. I suspect that is what might have happened.

Hi, has there even been a history of battens falling out of sails?
I seem to have lost my bottom batten from my 7 sail so I'm just trying to work out how it could have happened and things I could do in the future to avoid this happening again. any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks, Charlie
