Surely heated gloves would be a better solution?
I might be sailing it, but it's still sh**e!

Has anybody who has been pimping their toestraps kept the the old ones they have taken off?

If anybody has a pair of second hand toestraps about 800mm long, my OK could desperately use some. The unpadded webbing is not all that comfortable!

PM me if you have any secondhand ones I may be able to purchase.

Are those black lines heater elements like you get on heated rear windows ?

It would stop your sail misting up :-)

I still Prefer Charlie1019's Dynamic sails canoe sails, Based on a i14 fat head main.  Seem to be proving pretty quick atm, although i hear its kicking off as his sail numbers and insignia are blue instead of red!!  Very not pimp, Red sail numbers on a blue boat YUK!!!
