   I work in the aerospace industry and certainly locally we havnt been able to get our hands on Trike for some 10yrs. Various 'safe' alternatives have since been provided but arn't quite as effective. I dare say some of our suppliers are still using it but I guess thats part of the point of farming stuff out to sub contract companies.
 I certainly wouldnt want to use it on my boat. | |

   Doesnt help remove the stickers though, although a vinyl sticker of that on your mainsail would ease the boredom on lightwind races!     | |

| Understandably we didn't see you Sunday afternoon ... you didn't miss much. It was stupidly gusty out of 13 - 14 that went out only 1 finished ... 2 broken masts ... some broken people ... no blood though thankfully. any way ... How's the masterpiece coming on? | |

| Very nice job. Quite subtle for a pimp job but somewell chosen touches. 
 Just got my name stickers through for my boat which will go on when the refurb is completed and we have chosen the same colour and font. You are obviously a person of great taste and discernement,   | |
