På North Sails Australienska sida kan man läsa:
"Previously, sailmakers had been exploiting a loophole in the way leech hollow was measured. The Equipment rules of sailing stated that where a sail edge is hollow, and the measurement point falls in the hollow, then this should be bridged by a straight line (unless there was a batten), and the shortest distance from the measurement point to the straight line measured. By placing a batten at the measurement point, the sailmaker could put a significant hollow in the leech at the measurement point to reduce the girth length (Figure 1)"

Detta sätt att sy fockar på tjänar man inte på längre eftersom regeln är ändrad. RORC är observanta på "rule cheating" eller de brister de har.
