Hello

I don't think I make many of your requirements but I'm prepared to work for food and free kit. I learn fast and have my own felt tips.

Reminds me of on Happy Days, when Fonzie lost his dog, the police ask him to describe what it looked like. He said "I can do better than that, I'll draw you a picture!"........

No derrr he obviously used one of those graphic design program things you can get for the puter, like Photowizard or Picturepaint or whatever it is called.
You can see he used one, cos he traced his avatar then it is reversed like a mirror image.
Also he must of scanned it or something to get it loaded into the pornbox, and then used the interweb to load it up to the web.
I think he is highly qualitifed

What a great oppertunity for a young Designer who is into Windsurfing. There are some really talented young people out there, so go for it Guy's and Gals.

I would apply myself but it would mean having to pack up the family and moving somewhere warm and windy.

Someone should alert Red Jimmy. This Severne job sounds like it's right up his alley.

Chris,
So they appeal to the younger generation, maybe "Severne Sails are good as". NZ could be marketed as "Severne Sails are good as, Bro."
