James, Wouter, others,
thanks for your input. James, your story is really motivating!
The boat for sale has the double fore-stays. The spin has a first generetion Inter 17 pole and snuffer. That seems to work fine. I 've arranged a test sail in the summer.

Vic, nice to see you on the net. When are you coming to sail in Maastricht? Our first race is april 16! Are you sailing the voorjaarsbokaal in Hellevoet?

greetings,
Arend
