I purchased a new main and Genoa with no tell sales. What is a proper positioning for tell tales for an Oceanis 321?
main & genoa tell tale position?

I don't believe there is a 321 specific positioning. Google sail tell tail placement and you will get the "general rule" for most sailboats.
I seem to recall the main is - three on the leach at either the 1/4, 1/2 & 3/4 points or 1/3, 1/2 & 2/3 points for in-mast furling. And at the ends of the battens for conventional mains.
Genoa escapes me at the moment. I do know the loewers need to be seen from the wheel/tiller. On my B352, the lower set it too high to be seen from the wheel & I'm going to add an additional set.
