This is one single, light, shallow vertical crease along the luff--not multiple creases. It helps you to gauge the point where you stop applying tension to the luff. It shoud be almost imperceptible. And, you are quite right about multiple creases along the luff. This indicates over-tensioning. Thanks for the comments.
Thanks! Finally I know what that cunningham is for, and I can in other words ignore it for now since I am a complete newbie! =D

ok i dont agree with this one....... at all..... in light winds ignore the cunningham, creases up and down the sail are ALWAYS bad.
