Telltail placement!

[Robsail]

Hi, Just got a new main and I dont know where to put my tell tails?! could someone please be as precise as possible in telling me the best area for placement? Also, do you think it is best to usethe cotton telltails or the nylon ones. I have heard that cotton is more popular.

Thanks

Rob

Hi Rob,

I believe you mean wool as opposed to cotton - wool yarn has some inherent water shedding properties which is what you are looking for. Spraying with McLube helps too.

As far as placement, read the following

and

These will give some good guidelines..
