I think most of the telltales have fallen off my sails. There is maybe only 1 left on the main. What I am wondering is if anyone has a picture or a link to a diagram showing proper placement on the main and the jib. I think the main needs them on the leach at each batten and the jib along the luff about 6 inches in. Anyone? Thank you.

That's pretty darn close.
