SARANDIS' New Bowsprit
Chapter #3 in my quest for the Most-Tricked-Out-Sun27 trophy:
The Bowsprit.
Nice, huh? Courtesy of the friendly craftsmen at Ocean Rigging, this puppy will
- look trés cool
- make gybing the a-kite ten times easier
- get the a-kite in clear air, so I can fly it deeper
- move the centre of effort forward for increased stability
- look trés cool
- accommodate the new roll-gen spinnaker furler
- be strong enough to stand on
- make Tim Coughlin give me more room at start lines
- not cost extra for moorage, since it is not longer than the pullpit
- make Tyler jealous, because.. it looks trés cool!
Total cost: ~$750 + GST + 3 PHRF seconds :-)
Comments? Well-wishes? Expressions of envy?

If you think that will work on the starting line, you are crazier than I thought.
By the way it would be really nice to actually see you on a starting line. When will that Bus be finished???
Seriously though, I should actually be able to sail, by next week.. yippeee...
