Have a look at the UK 49er site, James Barker has put up a few kites in varying conditions, one going as cheap as £80 if you're wanting to experiment first. ------------- Dennis Watson 49er GBR735 http://www.helensburghsailingclub.co.uk/ - Helensburgh S.C http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/home.php3?affid=560 - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine |

| That yellow kite you have is an excellent sail. I was impressed at how stable it is although not impressed by the need to use both arms to pull sheet in. |
