You just need to wait a bit and other forum members will be designing custom avatars for you! ( TT ) Your Osprey might be from 1989 which, for personal history, makes it a museum artifact, but my Contender dates from 1969, 2 years after MY birth! |

I've just shaved 20kg off my boat.........."How?" you may ask me? New crew, simple answer! (and we are pushing 140kg if we are lucky, 160kg just seemed too controlable) Edited by 49erGBR735HSC |
