Bender,
Good thread......
I think you've just created a monster (thread). I'm too scared to do a list. what if you included the price paid for each item with total amount below - that's even more frightening.

Maybe you should also post the most used combo?
That would really require some deep soul searching and perhaps some unwanted face to face time with the truth!

Procrastination is fun.

Fins:

Most used combo by far is JP FSW 92L + North Duke 5.9m. Think I'll get a new 5.9m sail start of the coming season. The only other things I would change is maybe a 4.5-4.7m sail for those occasional ballistic days we get, and maybe change the 75L NewWave for a 81L aka floater.
