You don't need tough hands, you need strong hands.
Anyone toyed with the idea of sticking a large graphic on the spinnaker? As my boat is called Blues Brothers (serendipitously called this by the previous owners as me and the film and the music have "history"), and the fact that the state of the boat is sometimes quite close to the BB ex-police car, I has thinking along the lines of black hats on an old yellow spinny... or maybe a portrait of Ray Charles.... Well, just a thought. ![]() |

I think we need more graphics on spinnakers, in all classes. Plain white is so dull, it offends me.

That sounds good TT...... even tie-dye spinnakers....
Most spinnys are damned boring really. Hey, maybe I could get Banksy to knock something up? Nice one with the halyard.... Nothing ventured nothing gained... and hey... Merlin Boy could probably use it. Seen the size on his sheets? |

Well my old man asked how much it would be to put his company logo on our kite, i can't find anywhere that did it. Over the last few years kite colours and patterns have really got boring. Our 5oh Monster max is white!! Its like a giant pair of pants! If i wanted a new one you hav the choice of white, red, or blue!! The should call it the monster model T

Blimey...expensive string....... bummer.
MB, there's a bloke at my club who has a big salamander on his gennaker, and I think there was someone associated with the L2K crowd who could do it. Actually, as well as Banksy, I reckon Rolf Harris could have a fair stab at it. |

Those Karver blocks are so hideously expensive they have to be pimp.
Whats the Kevlar tape across the deck for? It looks quite good even if it is there for no reason. Here is my latest pimp in the making... ![]() Any guesses as to what it is? (its pretty obvious tbh)
