They're gorne. They closed down in the late 90s.

I was sponsored by Jaap way back in the late 80's. On the southern end of the Goldy most of the guys were riding them.

His daughter Mandy took over for a while and the name changed to MV sails, but they have both long gone.

I had a big pink one (sail). It was so "IN" back then.

Who am i to argue with a fashion icon like yourself!!!

And as for the hair, i got nothin!.

Do you think you might market Surf FX speedo's to all the new up and coming sailors? The pic must influence new sailors to the sport!

Cheers
