Posts: 27 Panama city, FL | I have a set of small Infusion sails, in excellent condition, that I would let you use for free. (Glad to help out a youth team). They could go out/back with the sailors from Wisconsin, or you could return them to me at the F16 NAs in November. That would be great, All we need is the Jib and Spin..I sent you a message, Thanks!
