LOL!  A guy I work with desribed the times he went sailing on a Hobie.  
He may or may not have had as much beer with him as usual.  However, 
I wouldn't bet against him!

Partially true...  Steve does play fair.  However, he had to 
replace his mast and had to get one with a lot larger thickness.  
As he likes to go fast and the new mast may support the trapeeze, 
he opted for it.  With luck, we can re-rate him in some fashion 
to keep the races even.

 RW> Using red silk... about a 3 ft x 3 ft..... looks like drying laundry
Sounds larger than my jib!  Not sure of the size, but it's only about 
3.5 feet on the foot an about 6 or 7 feet on the luff!  
Can I borrow it to use as a spinakker?
