I read the section on hollow and was sure you were on to it. Unfortunately, it
didn't show any improvement. The previous image is with hollow set for the
sails. Assuming the mountain/beach was "inside" the sails.

You might need to put your fog (media) in a container, and
remove (difference) a small area so the sails aren't inside the fog.

Oh, and you should make sure max_trace_level is high enough.

As far as I know, this is a bug within POV-Ray. I have had this problem
several times. Fog (not media I believe) has a problem with
textures/image_maps containing transparent sections. Hollow does not help in
this case. The best you can do is use media within a container instead of
fog.

Actually, transparent (transmit) works with fog, it's filter that has the
problem.
Try removing the filter statement from your sail & see how that works.

If this bug is still present in 3.7, it would be useful
to create a problem report at http://bugs.povray.org/, as
far as I can see no fog-related issue is listed there.

Good idea. As soon as I have a little time, I shall re-visit an old scene of
mine where the problem was apparent, with transmit in the texture by the
way, not filter.

With transmit, the problem is solved in 3.7.
In the image (old scene from 1999), from top to bottom: 3.5; 3.6; 3.7

I presume the higher brightness level of the latter is due to different gamma
handling...?

Yes, this was a quick and dirty test, without any fixes. Just the old scene
code, except for the #version changes.
