In an attempt to move past the neverending weight issue topic, I thought I would post something seeking everyone's valuable input. I need to know what you would like to see in upcoming newsletter issues.

Here are a few topics that I thought might be of interest to everyone:

1) Halyard tensioning systems. 2) Mast stepping & how to easily travel with an e27. 3) Boat preparation for the upcoming season. 4) New adjustable backstay systems. 5) How to get the most out of your racing sails. 6) ????

So let me know if any of these topics appeal to you, or if there is something else you would like to see covered. Also, please send me some pictures of you and your crew out sailing. Or designate one of your crew to be photographer during the racing and snap some shots of other boats out on the course.

Thanks, Jason
