I am trying to decide what color sails to order for my new H16. Does anyone have pictures of a Spirit colored sail that they could post? I want something that is more colorful than the Misty, and would like to see other options.

Thanks.

Brad at Sunjammers may have a set of Capo sails. They are new in the bag form 2000 or 2001

I picked up a set and he had one left which he may still have.

My 16 is in the front of the pic.

Brads # 850-235-2281

The Capo sail pattern was introduced in 2000 as part of the "famous surfing locations" series. However, it's interesting to note that the sail number (108350) is from 2004.

I have a white main - 108389 - that I bought new in June 2004.

Matt, that sail number thing is pretty odd. I talked to Brad and he thinks he still has that other set. I would be interested in what that # is.

I think he bought some NOS ones, perhaps they did'nt put the numbers on till they were ordered?

I like to use photobucket.com Just upload the pic to it and then copy the img (its one of the options) and the paste it to the post. Works great and easy.

Just a two year old boat... wow, I would love that.

My 14 is a 67 so that makes it 40, and my Nacra is an 81 so it is still older than I am by 5 years.

The 16 it replaced was a 75. Which made it as old as I am..

I think it's funny, that if I keep it as long as the old one, my kids will be donating it when I am 60....

Though I don't think I will keep it that long.., I will either get a new one or move to another boat when the loan is paid off in another couple of years.

Our 16 is a 1974 model that we have had for 25 years. The new boat is very exciting, and can't wait until I pick it up next weekend. The 74 will still be in the family, as I am planning on rebuilding it.
