I saw the Omer sail a while ago in fact if you look at the "hoops" around the mast thats what im looking at in terms of leading edge , but the sail is double skinned and is complex using as it does hydraulics or electrics to bend the boom in one place and a disc brake to lock the mast rotation, plus cutting the actual sail would be a sailmakers job rather than using flat cut rectangular panels that i can sew myself much like a junk rig.
