Nicely done, Gary!!

Did you use neoprene glue or Aquaseal?

: Just finished my first spray skirt, using the directions at
: http://www.wwslalom.org/skirt/ . The hardest part was trying to get the
: wrinkles out where the neoprene overlaps the bungie around the cockpit. I
: ended up making cuts, but it's on the inside, so isn't noticable.

: I used one of those cardboard tubes used for concrete forms (bought at Home
: Depot for $5) as the form for the tower. They come in various diameters,
: which was nice. I need to trim the tower height down a bit, as it's a
: little high for my Guillemot Double.

: One nice thing about having a 'Double' is that I get to make another spray
: skirt, hopefully better than the first one ;)
