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.
could this be turned into an impromptu windsurfing design comp?
you might even convince somebody to offer a cheap prize . we could at least get some laughs out of it
Retains the brilliance of the original design while answering the three most asked questions, thus allowing you to rig more quickly.
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.

It seems everyone has pretty much settled on "Severne Sails Are Good" as the slogan for 2011.
Yeah..I like it
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."
This is good advertising for Severne, this threads just got a mention on Beach telegraph As "Pure Gold"
