I thought I would just throw this in here to dispel any witchcraft rumors. What I showed above was just a method for making a semicircle follow me where the segments finish perpendicular to the face, as is needed for follow me to complete the faces horizontally.
But it is just half a full circle follow me, albeit half a segment rotated. You can see the difference in this image, the one on the right has vertical faces because of the rotated circle , the one in the middle has sloped last faces either side because it is a split of a full follow me (the gif below) and the one on the left shows what happens if you use a semi circle for follow me. It rotates the beginning and end faces to be perpendicular to the first and last segments.

The two things happening offscreen are, Orient faces, and Soften/smooth.

After you download all of your license files, store them somewhere safe on your computer.
Each of Fredo's extensions has a submenu entry under the Tools menu, use each extensions License... item to open a dialog and activate the relevant license file for that extension by navigating to it in the file-browser which opens...
These License dialogs allow you to manage your licenses and well as the SketchUcation based page which also allows you to download etc...
Remember, that as well as the latest downloads of each of the extensions, you need to install the latest versions of LibFredo6 and the SketchUcation toolset [which controls the licensing].
After installing them all restart SketchUp to sync everything...

There is a slightly newer version of the SketchUcation toolset available [4.3.1] - and it deals with the licensing set up.
Although I can't promise it'll fix things, it will certainly do no harm.
After installing the latest version restart SketchUp to [re]sync everything, and on reopening SketchUp see if things have improved...
Come back to us either way...

thank you, it worked.

It would have been helpful if you'd indicated you want to model the sail for 3D printing.

In your image it is evident you didn't do the thickening of the surface correctly.

Clothworks and then Joint Push/Pull to add the thickness.
