    It's not your phone, that site is way off, not saying their trying to rip off Johnny Foreigner as they may just be using old rates, but if you want to buy one make sure you pay in Euros!

    At 196euros for the boat, their site makes that £178.60gbp or $296.02usd but XE.com with their exchange rates updated every minute during market hours makes 196euros worth £163.88gbp and $249.11usd

    but you never get the rate which is on XE.com ... who ever exchanges it always takes a cut of a few cents

    That is one of the smoothest looking out of the packet riggers there is !

    I have already printed the pics and will work on extending the next rigger to suit the dimensions/proportions that I have gathered.

    bugger that the mini size rigger is set up for a semi-saw tight-oval as I run.

    I might just have to build another rigger as a result of these pics.
    See it....find the photos.....sketch it it....build it........with wood

    Kris it is indeed rare to get currency conversion for free especially digital money rather than paper and coin, but living in the UK I import a lot of stuff and pay in foreign currency and noticed that it was well over the going rate and even worse for USD than GBP I think paypal charges an extortionate 6% on currency conversions and that still saves you $32usd over buying direct from them in USD.

    If you want, I can ask the guy who designed and build this X4 rigger, Camille Remond, to
    get in contact with you ?

    That would be great.
    I am considering retiring the big Xzess3 based 4S rigger to the shelf as esc's and packs cost too much when I blow one.

    A new SAW rigger project may be interesting, I have a mini rigger on the build now but a true blue sponson forward saw beast may be on the cards.

    All I need is a few photos of it and a few critical dimensions.

    If you can help that that would make me quite happy.

    He can contact me here or via you or direct at overys@yahoo.com.

    Thanks.
