On a triangular sail, the '''clew''' is the trailing corner relative to the wind direction. (nautical) The lower corner(s) of a sail to which a sheet is attached for trimming the sail (adjusting its position relative to the wind) the metal loop or cringle in the corner of the sail, to which the sheet is attached. The batten extends the leech past the line that runs from the head and the clew of the sail to create a wider sail towards the top. The most common use of sail battens is in the roach of a mainsail. Assembly is also very easy and you can already see how stable the binding is. A sail batten is a flexible insert in a fore-and-aft sail that provides added stiffness and definition to the sail's airfoil cross-section. When driving, the binding is stable and offers at least the same hold as a standard binding. Yarn or thread as used to guide one's way through a maze or labyrinth a guide, a clue.
