Rotational
Rotational sails employ full length battens to push the sail round to the leeward side of the mast whichever tack you are on. thus always creating a more efficient aerofoil. Generally
the more full length rotational battens a sail has the more stable (but less manoeuvrable) it will be in strong winds - sails with 6 battens or more, but no camber inducers are sometimes termed 'hard rotationals'.
