Yes unnecessary enough to be pimp.

Now all you need to do is cut the whole thing in half
man up and sail one hull..

Oh and don't colour clash your BB Cap with the kite. Doh Cat sailors don't they know anything?

It wasn't my splices that went, It was the rope around the shackle. Can you get SK78 in purple to match the progrip on my sidedecks? The vectran was yellow so it sort of worked. I'm thinking of putting hard eyes in the splices this time round, they may have to be sprayed to match the rope/progrip or something.

600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it.
Also International 14, 1318

No not yet. Although i was thinking about it. So far i have
cut out the basic thick to thin pad that goes along the
deck. Ive got some time before i can put it on the boat so
I could still cut a pattern out of it. i could maybe even
get some different coloured pro grip to fill then the
spaces that would be pimp.

Anyone got any ideas for decorative patterns?

interior.

vectran wears out, as soon as the fibres begin to frey it can fail without warning, not tried the new SK78 dyneema, but apparently its good stuff.

Depends if the number of iron crosses equates to the number of German

So, I didn't notice any comment from the pimpmeister on my faux fur lined
spinnaker chute idea..

It's game on now with a pretty bland Blaze that will need uber-pimp-arbeit..
