We have a winner  Smile

Yes they are new carbon trapeze handles. There is nothing wrong with the ones ive got on the boat at the moment but i was bored earlier so i cut up some carbon i had and started making some new ones.

The Kevlar sail repair tape is to stop the boat getting scratched.  i used to use it on the 300.  I am about to order a CST carbon pole for the 5oh, just need to sell the spare mast first to help fund it!!!!  I will be buying some shock carbon trap discs as well!!

But what is there to scratch the 100 on just that specific piece of deck?

Im sure the shock sailing discs are much better made than mine but im cheap and had some spare carbon in the garage so i thought why not!

Looking forward to seeing it!

I was thinking about ordering some of these to replace the cr*ppy plastic rings on the boat as they are much better quality and look quite cool. The only problem is that they are hideously expensive and completely not needed and i could definitely go without buying them, as the 6 I would have to get would come to £45 Confused Way out of my price rancge but a definite pimp for anyone who wants it and can afford it!! http://www.myboatsgear.com/mbg/product.asp?prodID=1804

Like the cable tidy TT, had exactly the same thought.

Not so sure about using your old mans braces to hold that pulley wheel in though.

Not sure if it counts as its not actually on the boat .. but as they say, every weight saving is a bonus ..
