The Rs600

   Thanks g.r.f ! I've fixed it :) 

I still want to trapeze and the vortex seems best bet for my club and my lack of trapezing ability and the added bonus of the price, I would want the original one. The kite seems abit of a faff one to me

	The vortex is a cracking boat, even better with the kite. A great platform for learning to trapeze, look on YouTube at some of the videos also I wouldn't right of the kite without trying it!!

	Yeah my dad always said that if there were a fleet he would get another one, he loved it! His was the standard one, there is an assy one at the club that never gets used. I don't fancy the kite as I think I'll have enough to do just trapeze helming...

	tbh a kite is simple to use and isent that much of a faf it is just like a big jib, down wind people recon that they make the boat more stable and once you have mastered trapezeing then it is something els to keep you entertained, on beaver i doubt that in strong winds it would make two much of a differences to you sailing on your py and you will have no problem using it in medium winds

	I haven't trapezed before either, but I would cleat the main, but hold onto the main sheet, and trim the kite until you need to gybe. I cannot judge, as I haven't trapezed before, but i have used assymetrics, but that I what I would do. Edited by Max McCarthy - 02 Jan 12 at 11:20pm
