They're only doing all this cosmetic stuff as the bimble opportunities are limited, unlike the cherub where they're boundless... pimping is superficial nonsense

Looking good Russ ... you have definately got a good shine going on the deck there. Those pads at the back look interesting .. with the bouncing the 300 does I rekon that would be quite a nice massage downwind

I might add though that the progrip on the rudder post is all most a non pimp  as that is really functional in a blow and waves. I quite often find myself that far back with one foot in the loop and the other on the rudder post for stability.

For total pimp though you do need to have a Harken airblock on the rudder downhaul .. totally unecessary

That link doesn't work,

yeah, after i finished them i i noticed that i got the wrong name but
decided it would be far to much effort to correct them so they will stay like it
until i find my self with lots of spare time again.

got a bit more work to do on the spare dagger board which i have rebuilt
and fully intend to give a pimp paint job for a giggle. and am mid way
through converting my £5 pound carbon carp poles for some spare tiller
extensions.

havent sailed it yet but am shipping it to the isle of scilly on the 8th for the
summer so should get it out in a couple of weeks, cant wait to get back into
swimming :D
