I've got one side of my ratchet block metallic blue so I know which way through to put the mainsheet, unfortunately my other bit of pimp, the vectran kicker, has died a death this weekend. Does anyone know of a rope more pimp than vectran for a cascade kicker (I refuse to go back to wire)?
600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it.
Also International 14, 1318

Yes Pioneer pimp fella, but it begs the question why has your mum painted her Calipers pink?  I did that to my car when i was 17!

crazy and paint teh mainsheet arm.

Never seen it done anywhere before so does that make me a
pioneer of pimp?

Yep it is marks old boat, gone through another owner then got to me in a
little bit of a state

@rich: didn't realise it was your boat too, seems to have got around a bit. I
think it won the worlds a long while back with John webb (i think it was BNS
who told me about that bit) where did you used to sail 443?
