Bruce:

Also check out Davey Hearn's web site (www.daveyhearn.com). He sells Snagdragon skirts that fit C-1 slalom cockpits and can even custom order a skirt special for you at a reasonable price. A slightly cheaper source for a British-made C-1 slalom skirt can be found at Dana Chladek's company (www.rapidstyle.com). I've bought both products but haven't used them long enough to compare durability.

Well.....I have just ordered a Lizard 365, cut down to 355 cm. The boat will be a Large cut (70 - 80 kg) in a Racing Pro layup :D . Now I am deciding on the graphics. Joe Jacobi was great to work with.

Bearboater,
Definitely let me know when you are coming out to Reno. The more notice the better. I would like to meet you.
