Jammer Question.

grf
it is such an oddball fitting how many do you think they sell a year.
5, 10 no wonder it is expensive.

Skill and judgement? Fine got them, they cost nothing..

Low unit turnover? Hmm let me wonder why that might be, and how many more they might sell if it were priced correctly - no more than thirty quid in fact no, thirty bucks, the price they often are in the States

Edit: At current exchange rates they sell for £52.56 in the states.

My 'skill and judgement' with regards the wing wang, involves extensive calculations in the seat of my divided butt pants, as to wether to sail high and fast, soak upper or middle low, or fully wang and dead run to keep pesky Hornets, Merlins & RS500's at bay in iffy conditions all capable of shafting me if I get it wrong which I am more than capable of.

As to mindlessly pulling on a string isn't that what everybody calls a kicker?

The other mindless pulling on rope involves grabbing handfuls of main sheet at the boom end and yanking them really hard to make the damn thing unstick on a wave - that bit does at least produce visible results and is now thanks to Sir Ben fully legal at all times when I need it to be..

If my idea works it won't be pricey and you can avoid the ripped-off feeling and end up with a better system.  Just get those pics and measurements.

Originally posted by BBSCFaithfull GRF, Have to say old boy that it is your choice to install a defunct and mainly pointless system on your craft. The hardware required will be expensive yes. If you're buying the best, you will pay for it.  Given the amount of R&D Harken does as a brand and the superior quality of their products, no wonder it's a bit pricey. Just keep the pole in the middle and concentrate a bit more.... ;)

Nothing defunct and pointless about our system especially now it has turbo afterburner widgets fitted.

And I'd like to know another way an asymmetric boat being pursued by symmetric boats in sub planing conditions is going to stay ahead. I'm sure you're going to tell me one - not.


iiiiitick not sure if the mac is different but I uploaded that pic just by clicking the little tree with the arrow on it, having the pic file on my desktop and clicking choose file. It then ask you to wait a bit, and up it pops - iiiisimples..
