I bought an F16! I now am the proud owner of a Taipan 4.9.

The previous owner spent a good two hours showing me how to rig the boat. Most of it made sense, it seemed to be a lot like an F18 but a little smaller. :-) However, I would still love to hear about any tips or tricks you can think of that might help me out.

One other thing, I'm on the lookout for a couple of used harnesses. I'm 150 lbs and my wife is 115 lbs. If you have a harness or two gathering dust and would like to help a newbie out, that would be great.

I'm excited to get to know the boat, and hope to be comfortable enough with the boat to compete in Hiram's Haul this year.

Yea!
