At the mo i have a M/M skiff light trap harness, but since getting it, i've slowly been changing shape and now its uncomfortable to wear, rides up and makes bending over the next day hard! Have been looking at custom ones, n i've been recomended the PinBax one so will prob go about getting one made up, but before i do, anybody got any opinions? Cheers ------------- Pete RS700 702 |

Go on a diet so that the M/M harness fits again (well you did ask )------------- Bonnie Lass Contender 1764 |

Oh I see it's your age....(just checked your DOB). From what I have seen the P&B looks good and has only had positive reviews on here. I am considering one as I keep getting things caught on my M/M harness, usually the trap elastic in non trapezing weather.
p.s due to my age I do the diet though ------------- Bonnie Lass Contender 1764 |

Are you sure you want a made to measure harness? The chances are you're still going to grow some more so this time next year it may not fit you. ------------- 600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it. Also International 14, 1318 |

I havn't found that harnesses last long enough to worry about that, especially the made to measure ones which seem to be made of thinner material? Maybe it's just me. I'd got to the boat show pete and try as many on as you can... ------------- RS600 988 |
