Hi Chuck (Matt), Didn't realise you were from Oz. I gather you sail at Georges River or Yarra Bay. What do you sail on....... The Super Taipan is a mates boat. You are welcome to come down to check it out. You should see it around also. One of the owners lives inside Georges River. You are also more than welcome to come down to Kurnell and get a sail on one of the cats. One of, part time or full time. If interested I could take you for a run on my new F-18 Capricorn when I get it (September). Send me an Private Message if you are interested.

Not me. I'd just find it depressing if, at over 15 stone, I just managed to sail the thing in normal mode and realised it wouldn't lift. |

installed on my face when sailing downwind in the cherub too
