I am assuming that the rudder stock, tiller and spinnaker pole are all painted? Or are they powder coated?

Whatever, the finish has blown / worn and I would like to recover it, so, does anyone know the colour? A RAL number would be best.

Has anyone "pimped" theirs to a different colour? Dayglo orange perhaps?

Thanks,
Richard

They are powder coated rather than painted, don't know the colour but have used car paint to repair before which seems to last reasonably well, i have used this on the jib 'chairs' and main jammer as well, the colours i have used on these are Ford Azure Blue, Ford Velvet Purple or Satin Black, usually decide on colour bu what i have in the garage at the time!! The rudder parts and space frame i have only used black or grey on, but Mike and Josh have a bright green and yellow mixture which stands out, Simons new Buzz has the metal parts in white.

Not seem a dayglo orange one before though!!

I like the idea of 'pimping', dayglo orange, practical (can be seen from afar) and shocking too.

Pimping it though could be perceived as an unfair advantage and result in disqualification.

Would that be because of the glare caused to other sailors?
I'd better not stick on any "Go-Faster" stripes then!!

I'd better cancel the chrome rudder and tiller then.

Could do flames up the sides ? Or add an Amp and speakers?

Every mod approved if you can serve cask ale to other boats while sailing!

(Let me know where you sail if you do this!)
