Some very unusual and interesting subjects there, and superbly executed!
I love your sails, especially in the 23rd photo. If you have more photos on how you make your sails, what materials you use, thread count if you use cloth, etc. that would be great. Cloth sails typically look awful with huge seams and incorrect panel size simulations, but yours look very well done.

Sail close-up. I use thin cotton fabric, before making the fabric is dyed and impregnated with liquid PVA glue/Titebond do not use!/.After drying and ironing - marking along the width of the strips. bend along the marking line and stitch at a distance of 2-3 mm from the fold line, iron again and sew with the second seam to the panel. Considering the small size of the sail, I do not bend the edges of the sail; on a scale it should be 1-2 mm, and not 5-6 mm, as is often the case. Before sheathing with a cable, I apply PVA, glue to the edges then the fabric does not crumble when sewing.
